I get the chest pains with a locking jaw almost feels like you are having a heart attack when my lupus is acting up. I also now have started with the oral throat yeast infections which causes a very dry mouth all the time. Basically I've been told there's no cure for the throat either talk to my dentist yesterday he said make sure I drink plenty of water since there's not enough liquid in my mouth to keep your teeth clean just some general information. I have been pretty lucky so far and don't get the butterfly Rash a few bumps on my back but not anywhere on my face. But I've only been dealing with this for about a year still searching websites for information

Hi,

More often than not it can be costochondritis, (inflammation of cartilage between ribs?), Sometimes it can be inflammation of the lining around the heart or inside the lungs - not as serious as it sounds ! Just a thing we can get sometimes. Easily treated with a bit more immuno-suppression.

Also - This is just how I sign off, not anything to be worried about - (I am the local kidney worrier) - Make sure your Rheumatologist always checks your kidneys -

& checks you out from top to tail until you have a definitive answer.

Don't let them blame lifestyle, stress and anxiety.

I feel you pain!! I got diagnosed in August this year as well. Also in nursing and my life has changed so much. I was and still have-so much fatigue it is just over whelming. I have taken short term for now till I get myself hopefully back to normal! I am on Placqnil and CellCept . From my Rumitologist . I am going to have to see a Endocronologist for my adrenal gland now are enlarged and causing a lot of fatigue as well. Just not working so may have to have them removed. But they say that this might help get more life back and able to be myself again. I am praying!! Never feel you are alone. I had the whole CP high blood pressure as well. See about your adrenal glands as well. Hope this helps stay in touch.
