I'm so sorry that you're feeling this way and going through this.

Are you seeing a good rheumatologist? Or is your general physician diagnosing you?

There are so many things that play a role with Lupus. I'm not sure what all your symptoms are. Or how your blood results have turned out.

Since you're feeling the way you are.... I might would suggest another opinion.
