It is possible that lupus is only a variation of lymes, possibly with

mycoplasma added. Go to the lymes/rife forum for info. lee

Jim, Lupus is a mitochondrial disorder along with all the other

autoimmunes and cancer; as such it will respond to similar

therapies that unimpede or increase ATP production like the rest

do.

Along with Rife treatments you should consult the prototol for

autoimmune and degenerative illnesses; it addresses some of the

variables that are not immediately obvious. This supportive

protocol is useful also for age-related degeneration.

Hi !

Most rheumatologists diagnose and treat it. That is

how it is handled at the University of Michigan that I

go to.

[Guest guest]

My best friend has it and sees a rheumatologist, as

well as many others as her lupus effects her organs as

well so it would all depend but her main is her

rheumy,

Your post got me very interested & I did some reading about it. Sounds

like CHB is sort of like autism, no real answers. I read several

studies that said lupus is a cause, but not a universal cause in every

case. I guess it's sort of like the vaccine/autism thing...

From the studies I read, it sounds your niece is really lucky to have

you all catch is, sounds like the majority of babies die very quickly

after birth. Did you all know from birth or did it develop over time?

It was just last June at her 3 year check up and her Dr. thought things didn't

sound right and sent her to a pediatric cardiologist.She was always a quit kind

of sedentary little girl.She wore a halter monitor every few months snd they

said for sure by the time she was 8 she would need a pacemaker. The week before

Easter she fell off her bike at school for no reason and then was really out of

it. My sister called the Dr. and he said her heart probably took a long break

causing her to black out. So they put the pacemaker in right away.

Since we knew they were going to have to do it eventually it is kind of a

relief. Now everyone looks back and thinks of other times something similar may

have happened. She is recovering very well and has lots of energy now!

Hi Sondra,

Lupus is an illness in which a person's immune system, instead of

protecting the body from bacteria, viruses and other invaders,

attacks itself. This causes many symptoms, most commonly extreme

fatigue, joint pain, muscle aches, anemia and possible deterioration

and eventual destruction of vital organs in the body. It mainly

affects women of child-bearing age, but men and children can also

have it.

Lupus can present itself in many baffling ways, even to the extent of

mimicking other diseases, so it is often overlooked and

misdiagnosed. Many times the patient is told " it’s all in your

mind " , which is very frustrating, to say the least. Women are often

told this about PMS and many other things, usually by male doctors,

I'm sorry to say.

The reason I to worry is that I to often have visual symptoms that

can often be seen or noted and yet no real answers for the symptoms

such as constand watery itchy eyes that often only affects one eye at

a time and last for weeks and the eye is of very swollen on the

corners and such no real known reason for it (passed off as allergy)

Had of extensive allergy testing and found allergic to dust , mold,

dogs and cats. It is of not a seasonl things that would answer to why

it comes and goes strong to me. I to nto leave of my home to go to

others much at all or places, I to walk outside much sometimes 1-3

miles a night if able to and well.

Yes for years have told and felt strong within me my own body is

attacking itself and allergic to itself inside of me is the way I to

described it and yet you share lupus does exactly that. I to have

severe pains in my hip joints off and on but told it is of from

deteriation of the joints sockets. another to say from a pinched

nerve in lower back. The doctor to say much to me the inside of my

nasal cavity is of often over reactive , swollen and very much looks

like severe allergy issues but even whern take of medications it does

not realy= releave of the symptoms it just makes of me sleepy. I to

ahve for years gone to medical doctors for many symptoms was able to

describe and they did of test and most often find no cause for the

symptoms. sometimes they do but most often it is of passed off as a

virus and or infection and given medications to why I to be fo

allergic to most now for antibiotics.

Sondra, what are your favorite foods? Are there any that you tend to

eat daily, or several times a week?

I learned that some of my odd problems (I've had them since birth) were

due to a food intolerance to an entire family of foods, and they happen

to be the ones that are my favorite that I ate every day. Eliminating

them for a while helped tremendously, and now I try to rotate them in my

diet, which means I get to enjoy them sometimes.

Nightshades (tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, eggplant) are associated w/

arthritis -- could that be what's affecting your hip?

I to love of tomoatoes and eat too much of the foods with that and

peppers but aware of the fact I to not tolerate of them much well as

get of indegestion much so. lately though I to get of heart burn with

almost everythings I to eat. I to go to see a DAN doctor in November

named Dr. Demio to begin of a biomedical work to see if it imporves

of my health or he can find answers t my poor health at times.

Yes rigid habits to diet is of a major issue at times but because I

to love of veggies more than meats it is of hard for me to find foods

that are right for me not just good for me . Many of teh foods that

are healthy and I to like do causes me issues , but I to be wroking

on reducing greatly my food intake from Mcdonalds such as now for

most part do nto order FF with my meal. I to now only drink of small

diet cokes no longer allow self to have of mediums unless they by

mistake get of me one. I to try hard to eat of salads such as the new

southwest salad. It is of hard for me to know what to rid from my

diet and what to keep and even for me how to prepare and cook of

differently for self because much of good healthy foods none will eat

but me at home. I to limit dairy intake because it does not settle

with me and gives of me much tummy aches and leaves bad tastes in my

mouth. mostly milk... I to also causes me with some dairies

aggressive or day dream states of not being able to connect or focus

well to a setting, I to tend to go very internal with many dairies.

So going to Dr. Demio is of to me a hope I to be of seeking in how to

do better in over all health. I to be of like that phrase sick and

tired of being sick and tired LOL....

the day of the surgery was in much pains and cramps, the next day

fine but the day after that much cramps in my back and issues to

tummy and dirahea and gas and spasms in the ovaries places on the

left side. today chilling and then hot and then chilling again. tried

to rest off and on with many short naps today. but tonight now

sneezing and feeling not right so will go to bed here for the night

in a few minutes . I to want to read of the emails.

So sorry to hear of all you have been going through. I haven't had much time

to read or post. I want you to know that my mother was diagnosed with lupus in

her forties. She had all the classic symptoms as well. She was on steroids

and something else for years. After about 8-10 years she was able to gradually

go off her medicines and she is today at 79 symptom-free and she does not take

medication. She does though watch her diet very closely, rest, and do stress

relief activities like Yoga. So it is possible to have remission. Take good

care of yourself, will be praying for you.

thanks for the well wishes today do not feel like self. as usual I to

sleep much poorly. was up and down much of the night. my pinky finger

joint feels like it is of bruised much badly and like it is of

broke . so have no ideas of how I to hurt it but still could not

sleep at all . I to finally around 5 or so got to sleep and my missy

comed runnning in to say mom I to missed the bus because my alarm

went off saying it was of 11, then she to looked atmy computer clock

and it was of only 7:30 so now awake and because woke so quickly feel

sick to my tummy for it.

my mini lops had of aparty last night and kicked much of their liter

out of the cage and sonow my office looks like a conffetti party all

over my desk, floors and such LOL but they layed so much on their

tummys an dlooked up at me like they are of clueless to the reason

for such a mess.

when to look at teh lupus web sites I to have had much of the

symptoms for many years and over the years more and new ones came to

me. the first was having asthma much severe which began of 16 years

ago when never had it as a child. I to had of joint pains and such

for a time then too. and then around 14 yearas ago the constant hives

for over a year with no known causes. My doctor much times has shared

comments like my immune system being compromised because of the bodys

reactions is as though it is in constant fight to somethings. It also

explains why when on cortisones for 10 days I to never felt better in

all of my life. It to just makes of sense that this must be of the

answers. I to read and have almost all of the listed symptoms of

lupus. But being dx with lupus to me is not a things of fears or

anythings because have learned thorugh the reading that in much ways

have already been living of it for over 15 years now with no

treatment of it. so getting the dx of it willnot change of anythings

except to get of a treatment mode for me to help increase of over all

health feelings.

well I to need to go as my dog is saying mommy let of me out in her

doggie attempts of saying human words. And my cat is of doing her

routine of kitty meows in a cooing way to let me know she wants of

her morning routine can of fancy feast. and the bunnies are out of

water again. and now my missy is saying she is of hungry too. so now

to feed of all those childrens of me.

wanted to sahre too my flowers are blooming in my garden and the

bachelor buttons are really in good bloom this year.
