Hey I have been newly diagnosed with Lupus unfortunately I have not spoken to my doctor yet, I missed an appointment with a dermatologist after he done a biopsy on a recurring area about the size of a 1/2 dollar on face next to left eye that clearly looked like an allergic reaction, I started seeing the dermatologist about 2 years ago about that spot and mainly about weired breakouts on my back and sometimes upper chest that looked sorta like zit's he done a biopsy on them and came back basically as folliculitis, so it was treated with a benzo-peroxide wash and clindamycin cream,
But in December the spot on my face came back, same exact area, he performed a biopsy on it and I was supposed to go back last Friday to get the stitches removed, I called the day before and cancelled due to the stitches coming out by themselves, Nurse called me Yesterday and informed me I had Lupus I asked skin or systematic and she said needed some more blood test but the skin lupus was for sure and I would have to say with my other symptoms it probably is systematic, I twitch at night and sometimes during the day and have been on gabitril and helped but still happens, Joint pain, stomach pain and various nerve problems,
But I was in an accident on 8-07-03 at a grain facility and lost my left leg except 6", Rectum muscles and a few inches of intestine, scrotum was degloved and ripped my prostate lucky to be alive, After initial surgery and 21 pints of Blood I contracted mucormycosis which is basically flesh eating virus contracted from the grain in a natural occurring fungus, treated with aids cocktail of antibiotics and 20 hyperbaric chamber sessions 2 1/2 long it cleared up
I left the hospital 39 days later with Pseudomonas which I got from the hospital itself so the doctors wanted me out of there my wife was taught wound care and treated me for the next 3 months packing and picking cleaning all is well.
First rash appeared 2 weeks after accident and comes back periodically, I was wanting to know if anybody else has none of Lupus coming on or being caused by major infections reason being is if it Related wich I feel is Workers comp is responsible for all bill's, which would be unusual but by whole injury and living through it has been,
They also had to pay for a penile implant wich is highly unusual for workers comp, That is my first concern would be paying for treatment Sorry for the long post and any misspelling. I promise any more post will be shorter .
