Hello everyone!!!
My name is Julia and I'm 18 years old from London.
Well I have sort of been diagnosed with Lupus and that was last year in August. They told me that it was drug-induced Lupus from the medication Oxytetracycline (used to treat acne). So I stopped taking that and they said it should get better and to come back in 6 months for a check up....unfortunately it has not got better, in fact its got worse so now they are putting me on Lupus medication (which I can't remember the name of right now) as they think I could have the full SLE. To make it worse, I'm a Bellydancer as my family are Arabic so I'm finding it hard to do any form of dance due to chronic knee pain. AND I also have another condition called Polycystic ovarian syndrome, which I suffer quite severely from.....my luck huh? lol
It's nice to have somewhere to discuss how I'm feeling with people who actually understand what I'm going through!
Take care xxx
