Lupus Support Group
Lupus is an auto-immune disease in which the immune system cannot distinguish between threats (like viruses and bacteria), and healthy cells and tissue. As a result, the body produces antibodies that inflict cell damage, most commonly targeting joints, skin, kidneys and the nervous system. Join the group and find support for coping with lupus.

I hope you have better results. It sounds like they spent more time with you and did a more thorough exam. It only took a few more weeks after the exam to get my denial. Now I have to move, and wait until next spring to see a judge.
