Default Lupus

Hello

Thank you all for your help with my Lupus question. Unfortunately, I just got back from the Rheumatologist and it is definitely Lupus. I'm a little sad. All they really have to offer are the drugs I have already taken and did not help me. Imuran, Cellcept and steroids. There is another drug, but it is on the list of medications that exacerbate MG, so that is out of the question. For now the Dr. just wants to monitor my levels. So, at this point, I don't know when my hair will stop falling out. I took Erin's suggestion and started the Nioxin. It makes my hair feel wonderful, but it takes a while to work, so it is still falling out. I am hopeful.
