A little about me:	I've been living with lupus since 1997. I worked full time at a very stressful job up until 3 years ago when I had to file for disability. Its been a long and rollercoaster of 10 years but I try my best to spread the word and educate people about this disease. I'm always looking for new lupie friends and support to keep me going.

Hi again...where in Illinois do you live? I'm originally from IL! I've not had too much problem for a couple years, but just started having some "new" symptoms recently! I woke up a week ago with welts all over and within 30 minutes my lower lip and cheek were swollen huge! The welts didn't stay long, the lip and cheek was swollen for about 5 hours (very sore) then after the 5 hours or so you couldn't even tell I'd had it! I've had the arthritic pain, fatigue, pancreatitis, gallbladder, etc....but this was a new one! How about you...must be severe if disabled....would love to hear more! Thanks. Kimberly
