Hi Mary, Pearl, JC! Auto-immune issues are still something I'm learning about. I don't recognize many of the names, yet. You see, for me it is a "secondary" issue. Whatever is attacking my body (still no dx yet ) has weakened my immune-system and made me susceptiple to otherwise harmless invaders. It also seems to have begun targeting me in certain instances! Talk about a major rebellion! I hope you are all finding ways to help control your auto-immune issues, and any other problems you have! And I would sure appreciate any basic insights which life has taught you about dealing with this kind of thing. Good luck and best wishes to you all!

Richie
