Hi

We have our beautiful cat we have named her Beauty 🥰

She has settled in so well and not even had her for 24hours

I’m just wondering I’m still waiting for my rheumatologist appointment but I’ve been getting headaches on and off ?

Is this also a lupus thing .

I feel drained still eating and drinking but I’m not sure if it’s normal also I’m due my new glasses on Thursday so wondering if it’s because I need my new prescription?

I’m trying not to worry but I’ve noticed the rash appearing when I have these headaches .

Thanks

Natalie

Wonderful news about Beauty! I can't help with your headaches but a hope a cuddle from Beauty will make them less painful. Enjoy!! xxx

Hi Natz,

Yes headaches are common with Lupus and I get them more during a flare which your rash seems to indicate might be the case with you too. It will be interesting to see if the headaches remain after you get your new glasses. That will be a sure sign.

Beauty is very lucky to now have a loving home. She’ll be a great comfort to you I’m sure. My rescue cats definitely were - now sadly gone but lived to great ages - 13, 19 and 21.

Take care. 🤗😘

Hello thanks for the reply.

Yes it’s completely gone today . I feel I did so much yesterday and this seems to happen.

I don’t ever travel far I get very anxious and exhausted but where we picked the cat up from was far .

We traveled by bus and Uber then an Uber straight home then I just felt terrible.

Pounding head and then a rash by the end of the day .

I’m okay today I’m still waiting for rheumatoid appointment.

Yes she’s so lovely and can’t believe how well she’s settled in x

I collect my glasses Thursday so will see if I get anymore headaches x
