Does anyone else with Lupus get sick frequently? |
I have Lupus and I am constantly getting sick. I have ear infections all the time and now I have Hand, foot, mouth disease (for the second time) which is very rare in adults. I thought Lupus caused an overactive immune system? It doesn't make sense to me. Lupus is a rotten disease to have - my mother was diagnosed about 12 years ago and her symptoms include - arthritic pain (especially neck pain), fatigue, intolerance to sunlight, dental problems, etc She doesn't have ear infections or the other symptoms you describe, but with such a far reaching disease there are plenty of ways Lupus can bring you down. Do you see a specialist every 6 months? Maybe make an unscheduled appointment and see if anything can be done or administered (I know the prospect of MORE drugs would not be terribly exciting). I feel for you it means that you were diagnosed with an illness and you should have spoken to your doctor. ask him/her direct questions. BUY A BOOK ABOUT LUPUS Not neccassarily Lupus is where your immune system attacks your own organs. I think because the immune system is always active, when a real threat happens, it isn't as effective to responding to it. I know I've had food and mouth disease twice as well! I'm always fatigued and even when I'm not sick with anything specific, I feel sick. i have lupus to so i know what you go throgh... u wanna talk im me at kukamongakid@yahoo.com |
