so i’ve been dealing with lupus for 14 yrs now and i’m still learning to pace myself. ngl recently had a couple new diagnoses and it’s been tough. fatigue is still my constant companion, but i’ve noticed it’s not just the usual tiredness.
it’s the brain fog, the joint pain, the whole package. i’ve been tracking my symptoms and i think i’ve found a pattern. when i’m stressed, my flares get worse. anyone else notice that? i’m trying to manage my stress better, but it’s hard when you’re already feeling overwhelmed. fwiw, i’ve been on benepali since july and it’s helping with inflammation, but i’m still figuring out how to deal with the fatigue
imo.
