Update


My sister has stabilize, but is not yet out of the woods. They did surgery on her kidneys so hopeful she will not have to stay on dialysis. She still has a massive infection but is doing better.

I  was unable to take the new lupus drug. I got the "runs" so bad I could not get a  few feet away from the toilet. I also developed blisters on the bottom of my feet. This was with one pill! We are going to wait a week to see what to try next. I am checking with my insurance to see if the cover the new medication she is recommending.

On a more pleasant note I feel better than yesterday. I am hoping for a peaceful weekend.

It's hard starting new meds. You are never quite sure how they will affect us. I rarely think of this but was recently put on Synthroid and feel exhausted all the time. On the other hand, at least it has helped my depression.
