Thank you so much for providing this information. It is reassuring to learn about current research and to understand, to the extent we’re able at this point, what is happening to our bodies that cause certain symptoms/behaviour to occur.

So happy to find your channel. This year (2023) being so hot and UV extreme - I've really struggled with holding down flares and in particular the cognition impairment which drives me crazy. Its so frustrating.. Blessings to all.

Air pressure coincides with my cognitive functioning. Bad days and good days are easily predictable . Low pressure- worse (99.8) Rising pressure - relief High pressure- good quick thinking. (101.2 - 102.1) So if you have some clients coming from higher pressure areas to you guys at lower pressure and they are like me... You will see repeatedly poor results. If you have that same patient travel there and wait. Then. Put them in an MRI machine. The slight I crease in the MRI machine as it's colder and there is more pressure in general could show improvment. Now I'm trying to figure out what's going on with my brain, I am pissing for a lupus assesment but as it stands I do have cognitive issues.

Or the other way around. It's like 102.3 and I can barely keep myself going right now. Lol.. I though 102.1 was the ideal. But apparently my neck is stiff and my head is heavy. Doesn't seem ideal.

It's very hard to deal with lupus, we go through a lot of different symptoms we don't know what to do, some of the medication don't work, and then when you take the medication the nasty side-effects that comes with it,, who want to feel this way... then we become so l depressed.. we need better help. My head feel like a burning tingling sensation , can anyone relate plz..

It can be quite a difficult journey, both physically and mentally. Joining a lupus support group may help, it may help to talk to others who are going through lupus. You can visit lupusontario.org/support to register for any of the free online support groups.

I just stay on a healthy vegan diet and avoid as much man-made pharmaceuticals as I can . I want the healthiest diet possible . I got through covid with no vaccination as none were available . I enjoy chai. And 😎 .I notice a lot less arthritis... ❤
