Skin ulcers
Hi fellow lupus warriors I have had a wound on my leg for at least 6 weeks that is growing and won't scab or heal. I am not on steroids at the moment (just plaquenil) and don't have any other signs of a possible flare. Has anyone ever had something like this? Is it related to Lupus or just a coincidence

Finally passed a kt/v test
Ok, so after 11 months, I finally passed my kt/v test with a score of 1.82, which my nurse said is passing for PD patients. Initially I was on 8 hours, 4 exchanges of 1800ml per night. When I failed the first test, then they moved me to 2000ml per exchange, then 10 hours of 5 exchanges of 2000ml, then

Can Nubeqa (Darolutamide) be used instead of normal ADT drugs for localized PCa?
Hi all. Australia has just given the green light to lower the cost of this so-called wonder drug from a staggering $40K (AUD) to a low $30. It seems that this drug has fewer side effects than the usual ADT drugs and from what I can gather does a pretty good job of preventing the growth and spread
