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.
Hi all, so I've noticed that many of us have multiple issues and many people are very similar. I thought it would be interesting to name all our diagnosis and where we are from. Thanks ((big hugs))

However, discovering the gluten problems and eating gluten-free, plus using lots of supplements, have helped to lessen the symptoms of the other problems.
