I definitely know how you feel.. Stay positive and try to make necessary changes to your daily routine.. I almost lost all of my hair last year but thankfully with the right medication, it starts to grow back. Slow but steady.. Gather all the support you can get and please please please, don't miss your appointments with your doctor..

I definitely relate to that. It took me time to get used/manage my illness especially with skin and hair problems. With time you will learn to manage the lupus. You ate not alone and know that you have come to the right platform. People here can give you useful info and also the support you need. It's not easy but I know if you have the right info you are going to be at ease. Take care. X
