Hi Everyone,
I have posted here before, and I've been back and for between this forum and the MS forum.
Anyway, I do have Lupus, and it's supposed to be in remission right now. I do know that even in remission, you will still feel the affects of the disease. Anyway, when it's active, I sometimes get this horrible itchyness, and burning on different parts of my body, mainly my shins, and my hands really bad.
My hands get it the worst. They burn and itch and swell. I get these rashes from all the scratching and rubbing, otherwise I probably would'nt have a rash. My joints will hurt real bad too. The burning isn't coming from the rash, I start itching, and burning and then I think the rubbing and scratching make it all worse and that's what I think causes the rash. The itching seems more internal. Could this be from the Lupus. I have systemic Lupus, not the Discoid. Does anyone else with Lupus get this? Thanks Sandie
