Good Morning Everyone.. Today's post is health related. In honor of a really good friend, who is living and surviving with the disease. Be informed.
What is Lupus:
Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease that causes inflammation in various parts of the body, especially the skin, joints, blood, and kidneys. The disease can range from mild to life-threatening. Ninety percent of those diagnosed with lupus are females between ages 15 and 44, but lupus also occurs in males, children, and teens. Lupus can be very hard to diagnose because symptoms vary from person to person, can come and go, and can mimic symptoms of other illnesses.
Currently there is no cure for this disease.
Please take a moment to get information regarding your health and this disease that is impacting a large part of our community.
For free information about lupus, call the Lupus Foundation of America at 1-888-38-LUPUS.
