Lupus Thoughts and Ramblings

Today as I start this blog post I have just celebrated 3 of my kid's BDays. My oldest son Kj turned 22, My 2nd son Logan turned 20, and my only daughter Jayedyn turned 18. All on different days of course. I was barely able to join in celebrating with them but made it downstairs to sing and have cake, cheesecake, and more cheesecake. I had the hardest time with last night's celebration for Logan. My left foot has turned in a lot more when I walk and the pain I felt was excruciating. If you could see my pain this is what I imagine it would look like. I barely made it long enough to sing and have a small piece of cheesecake. But at least I did. AmiRight?

Lupus thoughts and ramblings

Being Sick is a chore within itself but also having a degenerating autoimmune disease like Lupus makes life a bit more of a struggle.  I have been trying to be more positive in my day to day routine but honestly, all my body wants to do is crash.  I was driving the car the other day to pick up my husband from work and  my body began to crash and my eyelids became heavy so I closed my eyes.  I  had to keep telling my brain that I was driving a car in traffic.  It scares me the things that I have no control over anymore.  I saw my rheumatologist and pain specialist this week.   My Rheumatologist is super nice but I wanted to hurt him for touching all my joints and causing me more pain,  the next day I felt as if I was hit by a mack truck.  He talked about my blood work and how it looks like on top of everything. I have either Lupus Nephrites with symptoms of Either R.A  (Rheumatoid Arthritis), Fibromyalgia....
