*Women health>>>Lupus

I Have had lupus for six years, and never been treated for it. what is my chances for survival?

What can i do for pain and numbness, in my body?

I would explore treatment options...lupus can be controlled for some people but not cured as I think you probably know. Lupus progresses very rapidly for some and very gradually for others. Mental and physical stress on your body can "flare" lupus symptoms. Eat healthy, work out in moderation, sleep well, and take care of your body...this will help. Talk to a medical professional or two about medications and diets that may be best for your symptoms.

If you want to take care of the pain and numbness in your body-get treatment. Simple.

As far as your chances for survival, no one here can predict. Lupus can permanently damage organs. Half of us have lupus kidney disease at some point. Left untreated it can kill you. If you have any of the lupus clotting disorders, those can kill you with a stroke or heart attack. It can get your liver or bone marrow. Rarely does it get everything.

Get treated. If you are looking for a "natural" magic bullet, there isn't one. Get treated. Educate yourself.
