(Granted - it's not for everyone, and it's not a cure-all...but it's a very viable option!) The best place may be to check out www.benlysta.com - there's a ton of info there that's very patient friendly. Also, I recently posted about the "Benlysta connects" program, which you can sign up for on that site. It might be really helpful to get periodic updates on the drug - administration, side-effects, etc. Best of luck!!Sara Gormanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07608238591846611898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8824828113983189391.post-82209501987923438642012-01-17T11:44:35.916-05:002012-01-17T11:44:35.916-05:00The holidays did a number on my whole family--and ...The holidays did a number on my whole family--and sent me into a flare. Hope you start feeling better. I've just been diagnosed, and have appreciated your stories.

I would also love your opinion on it! I am currently taking methotrexate injections and taking Celebrex to try and manage things but I feel that they are starting to not be as affective. I also have Hashimoto's disease along with my lupus.<br />I am just looking for some import from others out there and thought maybe you could help! Anything will be appreciated :-)Montana Lupienoreply@blogger.com
