I was just diagnosed in late November....before that I had been pretty sick off and on (mostly on) for a couple of years....stress in my life was very high at the time...but they had no idea what was wrong with me...always tired....stressed....then broke out in gosh awful sores all over my body....biopsies showed lupus....that period from beginning of sores to being diagnosed and healing somewhat lasted about 4 months.....since then I haven't broke out again but still have more minor flares very often....praying you are having a beautiful and pain free day

My doctor refused to put me on prednisone on a regular basis. I only take it if i have a severe flare. The side affects make me feel even worse then the actual flare some times.

No i have not but i will do my research on it. Thank you

when i have flares up, they send me to the hospital, the pain be so bad. stress is one

My flares are continuous but does anyone feel constantly swollen from taking presiedone I feel like my ribs are going to break l.
