Not happy about having to go, but thankful for the amazing ER staff, fast treatment and finding a Dr that had "gotten into" Stinging Nettles before and knew exactly what I was dealing with (none of the nurses had heard of it before)... thankful she knew my Lupus causes issues with my healing, and she knew exactly what to give me to help. Especially after I had tried many OTC remedies and nothing helped.
Thankful I might be able to sleep tonight.

My BFF was recently diagnosed with Lupus.... she kept having serious attacks of shingles, getting them in her eyes, mouth, nose, ears, to finally all over, as if she had chicken pox, but it was far worse than that. And she's got three other complicated health conditions which get worse when her Lupus flares up.

I'm really glad you got the help you needed at ER, Kenna. Lupus is a very serious condition.

I'm so sorry to hear about your dear friend. Lupus is, sadly, different for each patient, so it makes it harder to find effective treatment...and sometimes takes years of learning to cope with it. My heart goes out to her and her supporting friends and family. I highly recommend signing up for the national and local Lupus support groups and their regular, Lupus specific news letters. I have found several articles that help me talk in depth to my providers. (I too have suffered years from the shingles. I'm so sorry!)

And my hint for the day...don't get into a batch of Stinging Nettle weeds, as Lupus makes it harder to heal from skin damage.
