MDJunction to me

Claire138"It's been a year since I joined the Parkinson's Disease Support Group on MDJunction and all I can say is thank you all for the support, compassion and friendship I've received and been able to give as well. It was a lonely night when I came upon this site, but the nights aren't that lonely anymore...
With gratitude to all...

Unfortunately, I don't know very much about Discoid Lupus as I have SLE. I know we have some members on here though. I hope that they can help you. I always say play it safe and call the doc Laughing
