Well, my beloved just finished putting me through torture - alright he was working pain salve into my right leg as my thigh decided to hit a 9 on the pain scale...
His dog comes bounding in, worried about what's happening, and gives him side eye and evil eye as he works on my leg.

A5. This is hard because it always feels like a boiling frog situation where I don't realize how much pain I am in until I get relief. #LupusFlare

Don’t and I mean don’t fall asleep with your makeup on esp if you’re in a #lupusflare I took it off, put on #lupus meds & #aquaphor to calm things down. Eye makeup still looks good though! Thanks to #babeoriginal and @maccosmetics.bsky.social and @colourpopcosmetics.bsky.social But again Don’t

I didn’t make it. My body is yelling at me #inflammation #lupusflare Days feeling good are less and less lately

Planning to be outside on a hot day? Take these precautions.
Due to #SLE I may not take any sunbath, it would trigger a #LupusFlare. I stay inside on hot days.
No A/Cs in European private homes.

May have overdone yesterday's pre-Christmas deep clean as my legs are taking strike action today and have the support of my hands and wrists. #LupusFlare

I really hate #Lupus. I have had it for 20 years and I am still in the bargaining and anger phases of grief/loss. Every time I approach acceptance I have a flare and remember the devastating toll this disease takes on me and my family. #weneedacure #lupusflare

In an awful #lupusflare atm and trying to achieve that perfect balance where I can still human & do the things I love (write, art, walk, dance) with the necessities of work, errands & housework. I'm only doing the bare necessities this coming week, hoping to feel better.

I feel so vindicated. I've been in a #lupusflare and I have so much stuff wrong with me right now, and I will be filing that report against the doctor who told me I did not have #SLE after she dismissed me after I even had a diagnosis, and she stated she didn't even know what an ELISA test was. 🧵

My cats have been way more cuddly lately… I think they know I’m not feeling well. Dr thinks it’s a flare. Anyone else’s pets seem to know before you do?

I actually felt a little proud of myself for how I managed my lupus symptoms in the freezing weather. I was so hopeful I’d get away with just a mini flare, if only 🙄 been up all flipping night with raging joint pain 😢 2 doses of Oramorph didn’t even help 😔 #lupusflare #lupuspain #exhausted #bekind

Very smart. I keep saying I should have a backup (obviously: I don’t 🫣).

But then I get a #LupusFlare and can barely manage one account for who-knows-how-long. The past two weeks were 👎🏼. I’m catching up on FBs now. So sorry! 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵
