OK. I have probably written this before but it bears repeating anyway. *THANK YOU* for all the support this Lupus Site brings, particularly about the 187,619 (by actual count
) symptoms of autoimmune diseases. It is, for me at least, such a comfort to look at the the board and discover that I am not the only one with some off-the-wall symptom. With so many daft symptoms, it all comes down to Lupus.
Yesterday I was so vertigious that I could not get out of bed for hours on end. My wife phoned the church to let them know that I would not be able to take my part in the liturgy and, though I was disappointed, I knew that it would have been insane to try it. (I might have barfed on a parishoner.
) And I knew that it was not either "all in my head" or some dread disease: it was just another manifestation of being attacked by Lupus. Here come the wolves..... again.
I also knew that it would pass. Besides, a rest day in bed is a beneficial thing for someone with SLE.
This site helps with information and fellowship. Maybe it even helps keep me sane and able to accept and live (rather well much of the time!) with the crazy autoimmune disease.
So THANK YOU!
