Hi, this is me. I've been reading the posts here since last December as I believed I was a Lupus sufferer. Until now I've found the posts very interesting as a lot of the symptoms I've been experiencing have been highlighted on this forum which meant that I didn't feel alone or imagining such varied symptoms: chest pain, abdominal pains, spinal pain, pain and throbbing in all my joints, bowel problems, headache, fatigue, muscle weakness and recurrent UTI's(4 courses of antibiotics in the past 6 weeks!). I also have dry eyes and itchy scalp and I'm sure many more things that I can't think of right now as I have a muddled head!
Anyway the upshot is after 4 lots of blood tests, mega vitaminD supplements as I don't have any in my body and many visits to my GP I finally got a nhs referral to rheumatology..only its in 6 months time...so I'm going to get private medical treatment, as I can't function like this any longer. Sorry for the moan but I feel really low right now.💤💤💤time for another nap now, bye.
