Living with Lupus: Tips and Support
in Health ·
Checking in from Chicago. I was diagnosed with SLE 13 years ago and I'm 36 now. I had a son four years ago and I’m looking to have another baby. My doctor is a little hesitant, though. Right now my lupus is in remission. My labs look good—they always seem to be—and there's no organ involvement, just some mild skin issues that flare up a bit during the summer.
I handled my first pregnancy great. I actually went off all my meds on my own, thank God, and everything went smoothly. I started my therapy again right after giving birth and stayed on track.
I've been on the same regimen for a while: Pronison between 5 and 10 mg and Delagil, one of each daily. It's similar to Resochin. I stay out of the sun and follow all the usual rules...
I'm really glad I found this forum so I can share my experience with everyone living with lupus...
We can all fight this together and win...
