Hi,
I am wondering do anyone else suffer with muscle spasms? Not sure if is Lupus related or not
Thanks
Tammy
I was having them everywhere in my body about 10 months ago. They seemed to calm down. But these back ones scare the life out of me. It’s like my body goes into an electric shock.
Does anyone else experience skin pain? I guess the best way to explain it is, when I’m having a flare, which I am right now, I have radiating pain in both my femur bones, hips and tailbone, in all the muscles below my waist to my feet, but also my skin. It hurts to be touched or to have clothes touching my skin. Like I’m sunburnt or bruised and someone is pressing down on the bruise. It might sound confusing and it’s hard to explain. Anyone else?

My alkaline phosp always runs low on my bloods, doctors don’t give me reasons. I saw on a support group it could be related to lupus. Any one know what causes it and what it could be related to, and how do you correct it. Tyvm
Wow, you can go 2 years without seeing your rheumatologist? How do you get your meds filled? Does he approve it since you haven’t seen him in 2 years
When I simply touch my arm ever so gently, it is so sensitive to touch, sometimes my leg, even my face, unless this is prednisone or lupus related? What could it be. Endocrinologist appt tomorrow, rheumatologist appt next week, can’t wait, hopefully they can shed light on this for me. Oh, and did I say I am up with the coffee perking. Just would love to sleep until 6am once, just once. Have a great day everyone
I go to see a neurologist next week, we will see. My skin is extremely thin and sensitive due to the prednisone. Going to start another taper attempt on Sunday since my rheumatologist told me I need… read more
