Guest guest Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 I everyone, I hope everyone is having a pain-free day. I haven't been here in awhile and if I am...its every sporatic. (Hubby takes over the computer and I am lucky I can get on it for a few minutes at day). Anyways, my husband told me that had lupus and that the cardiac arrest was from the inflammation of his heart. I couldn't find anything online about that, but I found a few articles that MJ did suffer from lupus. One thing about the article that hit a nerve with me is this quote from Dr. Deepak Chopra " Chopra told People.com children who were physically or verbally abused can develop autoimmune diseases, such as lupus, later in life " . Now, I have RA, I was 24 when I was diagnosed and I am 32 now. NEVER in my life have I heard of child abuse can cause autoimmune diseases. I was never abused as a child, I had a pretty good childhood. Has anyone heard of this!?!? All of us know what it's like to try to live w/ the pain of RA. If he had lupus...why isn't it being made public?? IDK... Any thoughts!??!?
