Hi.

Huddersfield falls under the Yorkshire Support Group. There a a few groups that meet across Yorkshire. If you contact the group they will be able to tell you about your nearest one. I'll send you contact details in a private message.

I'm in Huddersfield too, have had 3 Rheumie appt s in Huddersfield , the first was ok, the second a waste of time but the third a bit more productive.

Despite being told 6 months ago I did not have Lupus, the letter from the Rheumie to my Gp said I had Raynards and mixed CTD, she did not tell me this in the appointment. Anyhow when I went this week she was shocked to learn of the problems I had been having and is putting me on a drug for my Raynards and also wants to start me on Hyroxychloroquine ASAP if the eye consultant agrees.

But she did not say I had Lupus, she re ordered loads of bloods, so I guess I will have to wait and see what the letter says this time?

I am confused as I am also under the Nuerologist and they have been talking probable MS for the last six months, so not sure now.

Know about MS as my sister has it and have worked with a few people with it, but never really heard about Lupus, except on House where they say they have ruled out Lupus and MS!

Not what you're looking for?
