Guest guest Posted August 22, 2004 Report Share Posted August 22, 2004 Glad you found us Lynn. We have fun here and learn a lot too. I like this group. I tried another one a long time ago and quit it. This is a good one. I am 57 and you may have seen my note welcoming someone else listing my problems so I won’t bother here. I have had lupus since a teen but didn’t get a dx until in my 40’s. That used to be real common. They are catching it earlier now. I get terrible rashes too. I was given strong steroid cream too and got scars and bloody sores. I use a cream called Sarna now instead. I have to put it on 2 or 3 times a day and it finally goes away after a long time and then come back again. -- In LUPIES , " lynnb_nc " <lynnb_nc@y...> wrote: > Hi, My name is Lynn and I just joined your group.
