Just been diagnosed with Lupus after 2 years of not being well. I am also coeliac and have Hashimoto's thyroiditis.

I also have hyperparathyroidism and hyperaldesteronism and in the last 2 years have broken 3 bones, had 2 heart attacks and had to have stents put in, suffer from uncontrollable high blood pressure, low Vitamin D. a detached kidney, changes to the white matter in my brain due to chronic hypoxic ischemia. I am just wondering if I am ever going to get well. I live on my own and everyday is now a struggle. I am so depressed that I seem to spend most of my day crying.
