You poor thing! You are in the wars aren't you?! You musnt lose hope, I sleep with a fan on, for the night sweats, even when I feel cold I am sweating, drives you crazy doesn't it? I am used to it now though, you will find your own way of coping, as for the head aches, I find lying down in a dark room for an hour does the trick, I feel like a vampire sometimes! Ha ha, I am happiest out of the sunlight and in the dark! Never thought lupus would affect me, so I have learnt to deal with one thing at a time, and so must you, if you are tired rest, if your joints hurt, find a way to relieve the pain, I find rubbing almond oil works a treat, you must learn to work around the illness, we all have to, I promise it will get better sweety, chin up. One day at a time. X

So sad to hear you are having a bad time, we all get them and know only too well what your going through. In time it will pass and hopefully you will be on a high, well as high as you can get with Lupus. If only people could see the pain and suffering us Lupies go through perhaps scientist would then do more to find a cure. Mouth ulcers, and ears,the sweats yuk,etc I've got at the moment, not nice at all.

Best wishes to you my friend,As Pammy says " one day at a time ", Get well soon Trish x

Ok Hi all of you, and it is Celiac disease which is a gluton intolerance and you can you Malox to rinse your mouth which will help. It is more likely Herpes zoster 1 which is very common in Lupus patients and it is from your immune system being in a poor state. We are finding that 50=100,000. units of vitamin D, will help with all these things. You would need to take at least 50000 units a week minimum, The Hydrochoroquine in quainine, it is given to malaria patients for aches in an outbreak which is common in Lupus patients for treatment. Hope you feel better! Signed a girl in the US with Lupus!!!
