Guest guest Posted June 24, 2004 Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 Yes, that is true. I have a friend who was misdiagnosed for many years as RA. She nearly died in the hospital before they found out she had lupus. She got better after they treated her with lupus meds.

My dad and my aunt have had finger joints replaced, toe joints, knees, elbows etc. But they don't have any organ involvment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
