Why do you think you have lupus?

If you truly do have lupus, then a physician can provide treatment that will greatly improve your condition and make you feel a lot better. Given the significant progression of the disease, the medications can prevent a number of the eventual complications the lupus causes.

At bolded: be careful, wait until you have a license before dispensing medical information!!! It's the new rule on GC!!! Forget the fact that you may have primary experience treating said patients or research on said illness, but, remember to add your disclaimer!!!

How silly of me to forget that!

I saw that other thread once, then never looked at it again...it's amazing to me that I've been on GC for almost 6 1/2 years now and managed to avoid most of the major arguments that have arisen here.
