MCTD/Lupus

Is there a Lupus group in Somerset/Devon area? I live near Taunton, thanks.

Hi Ladybird1964,

We have a Devon and Cornwall group. You can find out more about them and contact them for information through their website at devonandcornwalllupusgroup....

Dear Ladybird1964

Just wondering if you managed to access the local Lupus group? I too live just outside Taunton so your post caught my eye. Unfortunately, I can't get onto the website. It's good to read that you are feeling better following treatment - I am currently pushing through a flare which has been challenging as my children have required 100% of me this week during half term!

Stay well. Best wishes. Clare x

Hi Clare, thanks for getting in touch, yes, the group website is devonandcornwalllupusgroup.... it may be that they are too far away.....

Gosh, I didn't know there was anyone else living near me with Lupus, so sorry to hear that you are in a flare at the moment (especially on call to children too!) if you want to meet then I'm very happy to, even if it's for a vent or a listening ear, always here! Best wishes Lesa

Hi, my name is Lyn and I have lupus and fibromyalgia. I live just outside Bridgwater and would love to speak to other people who know what it's like to have Lupus. If there isn't a local group, why don't we all get together for a chat anyway? Just a thought. 😀

Hi Lyn - I would be up for that, great idea! 😊
