Well, so much for trying to get blogs written for Lupus Awareness Month! Hahaha! Oh well, at least I was able to get a couple done. And that is just how a person with Lupus needs to think; if it’s not done, then it’s not done and not to fret about what did not get done that day. However, I am fully aware that this easier said than done. At times I struggle with the frustration of how to let things go and\or take one day at a time. And honestly I don’t know if I would have learned these lessons, if not for Lupus.
This month is also Fibromyalgia Awareness Month with the National Awareness Day being May 12th!
Lupus and Fibromyalgia are so similar that some days I can’t tell which disease I am dealing with. Below are some Fibromyalgia symptoms
Thank you for taking the time to read these awareness posts! And remember, knowledge is POWER! 🙂

GOOD PRESENTATION—THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS FOR OUR EDUCATION.
Awww thanks for the reblog, Jonathan. 🙂
I have friends suffering with this.Have to stay informed!!!
Our Mum has Fibro and Joint Hypermobility. It can be tough sometime but we keep her smiling!
That’s good that you help keep her smiling! Storm helps me do that too sometimes. 🙂 Have a great week!
Both diseases are horrible to thier hosts. I was alarmed at all the symptoms they could cause. I wish you well! 😚
Yes, they are. 😦 And the symptoms can be tricky; sometimes I don’t know if it’s the disease or if I actually have the flu. Thank you kindly for the wishes! I wish you well too. 🙂 Have a great rest of the week!
Reblogged this on Seachy Waffles On. A chronic way of life!.
Hey, these days, a good graphic is all you need! Nice job and thank you for helping to raise awareness.
Thanks for posting this – it’s quite informative! I had no idea there were so many symptoms!
Yes, unfortunately. Ha! But it makes me happy knowing you were able to learn something. 🙂
It’s good to have Storm in your life. Animals can be so much comfort when you are sick. Healing Pawkisses and purrayers are on the way ❤ ❤ ❤
Yes, they can be! She is a bit of a brat though and doesn’t come near me when I’m not feeling well. Haha! But sometimes she will cuddle with me on my bad days. 🙂 Thank you kindly for the warm wishes and purrayers! I hope you have a wonderful week!
I have fibro, celiac, depression (go figure) and now facing the possibility of lupus. Reading other people’s stories helps me get through those dark times and hopefully one day there’s a cure for all of us. Stay strong!
Thank you! You stay strong as well! Have a good rest of the week! Sorry response took a while. 😦
