Hi ...

I am newbie to the site . I was diagnosed 4 years ago with early stage lupus and fibromyalgia. I have been suffering with symptoms from the age of four. My Great Aunt passed from the disease, and my grandmother is very sick with Lupus. I was looking for folks like me who feel like at times like they are banging their head against a wall with the daily struggle this disease brings.

I know my life and situation can be much worse, and I am a very greatful person, however I have been told I should not discount my feelings .

I am just sick of being sick ....

Hi Ducky'
Welcome to the site.
Many of us relate to being 'sick of being sick' and long for a few days of 'normal.'
Hope today is a good day.
Good luck
