Many persons are unaware of the impact of the Lupus desease on individuals and family members alike or even the signs to look for. In this blog I will try to provide free information to assist in the understanding of what to look for and where scientific breakthroughs are made in combating this illness.
The following is an extract from a website which details the symptoms of lupus sufferers. This company also provides a powerful treatment for this illness.
"Lupus is a difficult disease to diagnose, & can be overlooked, often for years, unless the GP or consultant is alert to it's possibilities. How do doctors know if you’ve got Lupus?
1. Your medical history - what you tell the doctor
2. What they find when we examine you
3. What the blood tests show To help distinguish Lupus from other diseases, physicians of the American Rheumatism Association have established a list of 11 abnormalities which, when combined, point to lupus. To make a diagnosis of Lupus the patient must have had at least FOUR of these 11 manifestations at any time since the onset of the disease.
1
Malar rash
fixed red rash over the cheeks
2
Discoid rash
red patches of skin associated with scaling and plugging of the hair follicles
3
Photosensitivity
rash after exposure to sunlight
4
Mucosal ulcers
small sores that occur in mucosal lining of mouth and nose
5
Serositis
inflammation of the delicate tissues covering internal organs and abdominal pain
6
Arthritis
-very common in lupus, pain in the joints
7
Renal disorders
usually detected by routine blood and urine analysis
8
Neurological disorder
seizures or psychosis
9
Haematological disorder
haemolytic anaemia, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia
10
Immunologic disorder
tests on LE cells, anti-DNA and anti-SM antibodies
11
Anti-Nuclear Antibody (ANA blood test)
when found in the blood and the patient is not taking drugs, it is known to cause a positive test for lupus in most cases, but is not necessarily conclusive
