    • About Me

      I am a 46 year old woman who has worked hard all of my life. I am married to a wonderful man and together we have 9 children and 11 grandchildren. I became sick in October of 2007 and wasn't diagnosed until January of this year with Lupus and Sjorgren's. My life has changed dramatically. I have had to give up a job that I really loved and now am trying to "re-invent" myself. I believe that God has a purpose for this experience and am trying to learn as much as I can from it.

      From loyana September 22

      Hello, I just joined the group, my neice told me about this web site. I have lupus and it has changed my life very much. I need to talk to other people that know what it is like. I also live alone and that doesn't help. I hope to hear from you.

      hope you are hanging in there. In a previous post, didn't you say you are coming off prednisone? That could be why you are having unexplained moods. If so, it will stop eventually and you will feel like yourself. I've been there. Hang in!
