Hi,
I have Lupus and have been on antimalarials for approx 6 years now. Am pretty lucky and only have minor flares from time to time but in the last couple of weeks I've seem to hit a brick wall.
First I developed vomiting and diarrhoea which i needed hospital treatment for, then i went on to get cystitis and tonsillitis. A wisdom tooth became aggravated and infected at the same time! Am on 2 lots of antibiotics for these and was beginning to feel more human again - but in the last few hours I've started vomiting again!!!!
My workplace hasn't been very understanding and I've had to go in - am off sick now though due to the vomiting (I work for the NHS!)
I know that Lupus makes me more suceptible to problems but do other people experience such runs of bad luck? How do people get through it? Any advice??!!
Thanks
