Does anyone with LUPUS get reoccurring Shingles/ Herpes Zoster infections?
So I am waiting to be diagnosed with Lupus/ Mix Connective Tissue Disease. I have a lot of the symptoms for lupus like the face rash, other rashes on my body. Severing from fatigue, mouth ulcers really bad migraines. My body gets swollen and holds a lot of fluid. Joint pain as well as stomach issues.

USP or API sources for different NDT thyroid brands
Hi, I was wondering if anybody has information about which NDT brands use which Desiccated Thyroid Extract (USP or API) sources and where these USP/API sources are manufactured? I am particularly interested to know about Armour, NP and Erfa and even the new brand Adthyza.
