its lupus

tin-tin as what we call her. she was  my classmate when i was in college. a simple, generous, kind, always wear big smile whenever she saw her friends and classmate. thats how i describe her..
 who knows she already acquire the desease.
          It was diagnose as lupus few months after our graduation. I was the first to know it, through text.. she inform me that her physician told them that she has a lupus..
          she was far from before, when we were still in college.  she made-up herself as our laughing stuff....
               BUT NOW......
    a lot of her personality was changed..., the face that always in a smile like jollibee was now a picture of sorrow, no trace of happiness.. she's now a kind of moody, irritable and very sensitive....
         puffy face, like kokey... hehehehh.... violet complexion.......

         her doctor always monitor her cbc and u/a.. and give her   lifetime medicine, the steroids called prednisone. and lots of vitamins plus milk..
            until we find out that she already pregnant at about 12 wks. age of gestation.. I  was shock. coz, her doctor told her before that if she will concieve  perhaps she or her baby oar both of them are at risk..
               until she deliver her baby avia  cesarian section due to her     high blood pressure..  and thanks GOD both of them are okey now......

               LUPUS ias a chronic  autoimmune diasorder mark by flare-ups and remissions. one of the most serious rheumatic disease/. it is difficult to diagnose.  generally coming long after the first symptoms arise. and after the complaints dismisses as psychosomatic.

            LUPUS also may be temporarily misdiagnosed as rheumatoid arthritis a, skin disease, kidney disease, mononucleosis, epilepsy, mental illness and others...
    LUPUS occurs n 1 in 70 women between the ages aa15 to  64
