"I itch all over, all the time, I have wounds from scratching. I find Diclofenac to bring some relief - I don't know how.
Is this psychological, a lupus symptom, or some other disease? It's driving me crazy, I can't do anything, not even sleep. I'm also on Plaquenil, don't know if there's any connection.
HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP!!!!"

"I know that one of my neighbors has Lupus (he is a really friendly nice guy).
