Anxiety

[JennaeClifford]

Does anyone else suffer random but rather crippling anxiety? I’ve just read that some of our lupus meds can cause it? X

Any advice would be most appreciated x

Hey, like whaleroad hydroxy in the early days really made my anxiety worse, it’s still there but I think I was a bit wild for those first few weeks!
