      From ByGodsGrace June 9, 2007

      Thanks for the hug. I am glad that I helped. I work for a state office and deals with lots of people who are applying for disability. I know it takes persistance. Lots and lots of persistance. . .

    • Close Lupus

      I was just diagnosed in Dec. 2006 with SLE and Nephritis. All 8 days before Christmas. Great gift huh? LOL. I am still trying to get used to the fact that I have Lupus. I am the only one in my whole family to get it.

      Treatments

      Cellcept Not Working
      My body rejected it
      Prednisone Working / Worked
      I think its working.It has made my face bloat and change....that is the only bad thing I have experienced so far. No weight gain yet...hopefully none at all.
      Laughter Working / Worked
      "You can't drink after me....you might catch Lupus"
      Rituxan Somewhat Helpful
      Apparently it worked in killing the b cells. But after i had 2 treatments, i found out the very dangerous side effect that my doctor didn't inform me of.
      Azathioprine Too Soon to Tell
      Doctor decided to try this cause everything else didn't seem to be working
