    • Close Hypothyroidism

      When I was a senior in highschool, I went on a certain birth control patch called Ortho Evra. Ever since I went on it I gained weight, felt horrible, was depressed, and negative all the time. I couldnt figure out what was wrong or why I had gained 20 lbs. I told my gyno and my family that something was wrong but no one really believed me. I know my body and something wasnt right. Finally after 3 years I stopped taking it. I found out a year later I had hypothyroidism.

      Treatments

      Synthroid Working / Worked
    • Close Lupus

      I have been living with Lupus now for 2 years, and it has been quite a struggle. I have gone through many hardships and still do, yet i have become a stronger person :) Stay strong.

    • Open Arthritis

      I am 23 years old and diagnosed about a year ago with Mixed Connective tissue disease. Its a combonation of Lupus, Rheumatoid arthritis, and some other things. It is one of the most painful things Ive ever been through. I thought I was the only 23 year old with it, but now I know I'm not. when I have flare ups, it is the lupus flaring up, but it hurts all through my tissues and joints.

      Treatments

      Ibuprofen Somewhat Helpful
      Tylenol Working / Worked
    • Open Raynaud's Disease

      Before any of my other sicknesses occured, the first sign was rainauds. I didnt know what was wrong, but tips of my fingers and toes would go numb in the cold. It got to a point that it hurt very badly, but no other symptoms ever occured. Then a few years later they found out I possibly had lupus or mixed connective tissue problem.

    • Open MCTD

      My name is Maggi, and they first diagnosed me with MCTD. I wasnt sure what it was, but then i figured out its pretty much a mixture of different diseases. Now I am told I mostly have lupus but i still have symptoms of some other antibodies that I have. It's no fun, but Its being controlled and im dealing with it.
