I was diagnosed with SLE and Sjogren's in October of last year. My rheumatologist thinks that I have a "fairly mild" case of it (no organ involvement) and if it is to get any worse, we will know within the next few years.
(But of course, I am flaring right now and there is nothing "mild" feeling about this!)
So I just wanted to say hi. I've been lurking on these forums for awhile. Being diagnosed with Lupus came as quite a shock to me- up until last year, I was a very healthy, newly married girl. I exercised 5-6 days a week, ate healthy, and took care of myself. My husband and I were just making plans for our new life together...and now I've spent the better part of a year chronically sick. It's been stressful and frustrating, to say the very least (and I am sure many of you can relate!)
I look forward to posting here, it seems like a great community.
