      Thank you, @EricG1247 From one Lupus Warrior to another, I appreciate this with all my heart. Thank you for your support & for bringing awareness to Lupus. People still ask me, "How can you have Lupus, isn't that a woman's disease?" 5-10% of the 1.5M in America w/Lupus are men!https://twitter.com/EricG1247/status/1314714134123024384 …

      That's the first thing everyone told me when I was first diagnosed when I was finally diagnosed. It took years for me to actually be diagnosed.

      It makes me sad to read this, it took years for me too. And in retrospect, there were signs my entire life, from low white cells and red cells when I was younger, to unexplained joint pain & fatigue. I was told to "suck it up" & "stop complaining" so many times growing up.

      I was deployed to Iraq when my 1st symptoms started to manifest. I was told I was faking it and I missed promotions because of it. I deployed again while my symptoms worsened. It took about 4 years to finally get my diagnosis. I was told the same thing except it was yelled at me

      I can't imagine being in that sun and made to keep moving. The stress of that alone would have done me in. I'm so glad you now now it wasn't from lack of trying on your part. May all your tomorrows be better.

      Thankfully I worked the night shift but when I would exercise it was during the day. I was hospitalized a couple of times and no one knew why at the time. Fun times to say the least

          I had trouble dealing with lupus in a regular job but they didn't make me run or train in the sun. I felt shame for not pulling my weight so for you it must have been much worse. As much as I hate this disease I'm thankful I finally got my diagnosis.
