Picking your brains

[Betsy006]

Hi, I am undiagnosed. I went to the rheumatologist and the experience was unhelpful. I was just researching Beau's nails and found this group. My pain is keeping me from working as much as I need to. It started as aches in my shoulders and hips as well as blisters on my cheeks and chest. I have over all hearing loss in both ears. I get brain fog and exaustion but that might be from having 3 teens and being 53. I did just get a husbandectomy so it has been a lot of stress. Just trying to price it together. My best guess is Lupus.
