Oh Sweetheart, Be prepared. When I was diagnosed finally I was on my 9th bout of pneumonia and bronchitis which I have had bouts with all of my life. I'm of Hungarian origins and have big rosy cheeks so no one ever figured it out until I saw a Rheumatologist. He even called the students from dermatology to come take my picture for classic butterfly Lupus rash. Pray for the cure!

I would be prepared for that, but be so thankful for answers...I hope. Many people go for years without a definite diagnosis. I hope the best for you!

Honestly if they diagnose you that quickly/easily it might be a blessing in disguise as much as it probably doesn’t seem that way right now! I went a couple of years super sick and numerous emergency visits before they were willing to suggest that maybe I had lupus. Hope it goes well for you!

with each diagnosis, i let myself go to the "worst case scenario," then walk myself back to the best case scenario. Then i remind myself, "Usually, it's something in the middle...like wanna run more diagnostics." This helps me. If Tuesday's sucky or lucky, you got this, woman. All the best
