Biopsy/lab Question Posted: 11-12-03 20:35pm


I got copies of my biopsy and lab results today. The biopsy says that I have tumid le and mentions lymphocytes and histiocytes. My labwork indicates high absolute lymphocytes. How are these related to lupus? I think I am tired of this whole lupus thing. Can I just tell my doctor that I don't want it any more???

Hi willow, sorry I can't help out with the lab results. Lady brannon probably can, though. I just wanted to say that i've often thought about telling my doctor, "o.K. I'm done with this now. I don't think i'll have lupus any more." wouldn't it be nice if we could all go on strike and say "i'm not doing this any more."? Best of luck to you, lizbet

Hi Guys! Posted: 11-13-03 22:46pm


Hi guys! 1) lymphocytes are infection killers. Think wbcs...There can be several types of lymphocytes. These "wise" particles can even be long-lived and recall previous invaders of the body! Pretty cool, huh? 2) as for wanting to say, "i am through with this." amen! I want to so bad and then I have a week like this. I hate this damn disease!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope everyone else is doing much better than I am! hugs, ladybrannon
