Happy Mum's Day!

Thank you! It was better than today I tell you.

I too, have Lupus SLE, and they've told me over and over they 'don't think' it's hereditary

Yeah that's what they tell her. But both my sister and brother have arthritis symptoms, just minor but they're there. I hope that I could get away with just having the sun sensitivity, thought that's inconvenient in the summer. I've seen how bad Lupus can get, my mam's on a cocktail of drugs, and when she gets relapses it's terrible. Though it's no excuse, it's probably one of the reasons that she has an alcohol problem, she drinks to keep the pain away. Then of course the combination of drugs and alcohol is a bad one.

I hope you have your lupus well managed, and you're mainly pain free. I've seen how much it can affect quality of life and would hate to think of you in pain.

Look after yourself okay.
