Help Find a Cure for Lupus!
Hi, My name is Alexandra and im 21 years old and I have a disease called SLE Lupus. Lupus is an autoimmune disease that can affect the skin, your joints, your kidneys, and your other organs. I was diagnosed in March of 2011, I was only 19 years old. I was away at school my 1st year at college and I was having a lot of pain in my wrists. The doctors ran a bunch of tests and couldn't figure out what was wrong. Finally the told me it was SLE Lupus. The first two medicines the doctors put me on made me violently ill so on the Saturday after thanksgiving (2011) I started having to give myself Methotrexate injections (low dose chemo) on a weekly basis. This treatment works but at a price, it drains a lot from my body but right now its one of my only medicine options. On 11/1 I spent more than 8 hours in the ER for dehydration, exhaustion and weakness from both the Methotrexate and the Lupus. After talking to my mom, I decided that i wanted to give back to the Lupus community and contacted some of my favorite authors to set this up. So with the help of Read Between the Lines blog (http://www.rbtlreviews.com/) I am hoping to be able to raise some money for this! Right Now I planning to keep this contest going until 12/7!
