Oh, honey. I'm sending you TONS AND TONS AND TONS of hugs. I know it's difficult to swallow, but at least you know what you're up against. And besides, a few days of discomfort at the beginning of a treatment may be worth it in the end.
Let us know how you're doing. You've been so helpful and kind to me. Let me know if I can do anything for you. You can always e-mail me. I'm ready to listen ANYTIME!!!!
Love and hugs, Alicia.

Maria,
Like the others I am sorry to hear you have Lupus.
I hope with the knowledge you have now and meds you will be able to start to feel better.

Oh Maria, only reading this now.
It must be a great relief to finally have a diagnosis and something that you can now aim to overcome and work towards treating your symptoms properly. I can also imagine the anxiety at your illness being diagnosed and finding out that there is definitely something medically wrong.
Hope you are doing ok.

No problem at all! I looked up Lupus for myself (to get more information on it) and I saw that there was a coping section and wanted you to see it.

I was away when you posted this, so I'm a little late but...
I'm so glad you finally have an answer, although I wish it was a better one. I don't know anything about lupus, but I'll be thinking of you as you begin finding what works to help you feel better.
If there's anything I can do to help, please let me know.
Take good, good care.

Sorry I'm so late in responding, but I've just been in this weird brain fog for the last week. I'm doing fine - just dealing with a flare-up and busy with work.
Thank you SO MUCH for your support. *HUGS!* I'm feeling a lot better now about taking the Plaquenil (I start on Sunday). You're right - any side effects will only be short term and in the long term I should be feeling better and have more energy!
