I was recently diagnosed with lupus and rheumatoid arthritis in March, right about the beginning of Covid. Having been on immunosuppressive therapy I had to leave my job as a healthcare worker. I am a single mother to a daughter with special needs and hashimotos. Needless to say, we are isolated and lonely. Therapy has all but come to an end. My anxiety is the worst it’s ever been. I’ve been to 20 different doctors this year. Found out I was vitamin deficient and anemic. Had my first blood transfusion yesterday, I’m praying for relief. I barely sleep at night, chronic anxiety and tinnitus and other side effects from all the medicine I have been prescribed are taking its toll.
