I hope I am very wrong

not-lupus

Gee….now that’s something I hardly ever think or say! I woke up from yet another nap. It does not seem possible….but I feel worse :-( Then it hit me. I feel like I am coming down with the flu….again. I went for years with no flu, then got it this spring. The timing was scary. A day or two after I realized that’s what I had, the flu epidemic broke out. I was listed as “suspicious”, but was not tested.

Lupus flare-ups and the flu can feel almost identical. This is kinky, but I’d rather have a lupus flare-up than swine flu. I wonder which is worse? At least I’m “used to” lupus. Crap. I do not want to be sick any more! My head feels like it is going to explode, I have intense body aches and my skin is wicked creepy feeling.

What to do? Pray and hope the next time I wake up, it’s all gone!
