Hi @jayrimm
Welcome to the community, good to see you join us.
I'm sorry to hear that you are struggling with your lupus at the minute, have you spoken with your GP about this to see if they can support you in any way?
Is there anything in particular that you are struggling with?
I know of one of our members, @lisathomas50, who has experience of lupus so maybe she will be able to offer some insight

Hi and welcome to the community
Sorry to hear you are suffering with your condition and hope other members can offer some advice
But as above the best option would be to discuss this with a medical practitioner
Hope you feel better soon -
thank you for the message back

Hi @jayrimm - Just adding my welcome to the community. As above, do talk to your GP/specialist to see if they can advise as you're struggling with your SLE currently. Is this due to a flare do you think?I don't know if you've come across this site before, but I've found it quite informative. Please see: https://www.lupus.org.uk/Kindly let us all know how you get on, thank you. Take care.

Yes thanks I have an appointment with my rheumatologist next week as it seems to be a really bad flare up. I am a member of Lupus UK also & many thanks for replying. Makes me feel like people are listening which is a huge help mentally
