    Default Lupus

    Well guys I found out today why I have headaches and a tired all the time. I have Lupus next step is to see a doctor that specializes in this disease. I had so hoped to be feeling better by now not worse. I had wanted to go to the meet in Iowa. Many of you I know on this board but I want to meet all of you in person. Hopefully next yr I can make it. At least I know why I have so much fatigue and maybe what I thought was Meniere’s disease. Now that I know what I have it can be treated! And I can get my life back.

    Thanks guys I appreciate your replies. I just want to get to the point where I feel better again. We are here on earth for such a short time I don’t want to miss a minute of it. And I have this great car just sitting in my garage collecting dust. I want to get behind the wheel of her. I want to take her to Gatlinburg and anywhere else with roads with lots of turns, the kind of roads just made for G8’s.

    And yea I had been to so many doctors, had 3 CAT scans done and 2 MRI’s. If I had the money back I’ve spent so far I could have bought a supercharger and had it installed on my baby.

    I’m anxious to get started with my treatment what ever that may be because I don’t want to miss out on life anymore.



    BTW for those of you on FB I can be found at blair1955@juno.com

    thanks again....Blair
