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.

Since I was diagnosed with lupus I get alot of migraines, anyone else have this happen, My Dr. has me on meds for it and it does help, but sometimes they are awful. My doctor was not surprised that I have them now, he feels that the lupus is the cause as I have never had them in my life

I have migraines but have had them since I was 12 long before my diagnosis . I had one that lasted 3 months and they put me in the hospital for IV pain meds to break the cycle . I usually take imitrex and it works well most of the time .

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
