I would like to dedicate this stories to Sr Clarefrancis A.(Sis), Laura Case, her daughter and anyone else with this illness. Please read, note and forward.

Symptoms to watch out for


* Lupus can be triggered by hormonal changes such as puberty, the Pill and pregnancy. Sunlight, trauma or a prolonged course of some medications may also activate it.

* There may be a genetic link - lupus is often triggered in those where there is a family history of the disease and/or other immune system illnesses such as arthritis, MS and rheumatism.

* Anyone with suspected lupus should have blood tests.

* Symptoms include: joint/muscle aches and pains; a rash over the cheeks; extreme fatigue and weakness; rashes from sunlight; flu-like symptoms; headaches/ migraines; kidney problems; hair loss; swollen glands.

* Hughes syndrome is characterised by recurrent miscarriage, headaches and a tendency to blood clots (eg, DVT).
