I was about 8yrs when i started getting sick. Weight lost, sleeping all the time, joint pain so bad i couldnt walk, and a rash on my legs. I went to over 50 doctors and they couldnt tell me what was wrong with me. I finally broke out in the rash on my leg and the doctor told me to go to the hospital asap. By that time i was 10 didnt know what was wrong with me, got to the hospital and they did every test known to man kind. They finally came up with lupus. Every since then i've been on every med for lupus. Today i'm doing good still hurt like crap so times but i'll still alive.
