Recently Diagnosed With Lupus Erythematosus
Posted: 02-17-04 07:33am

Hi,
my name is cori and I have been diagnosed with lupus erythematosus on feb. 6th 2004.
Not knowing yet whether it is l.E. Discoidis or systemic l.E. The waiting for the test results is the worst part right now. On one hand I am glad and feel relieved that the long search for what is "wrong" with me is finally over. On the other hand having to be patient and wait for the results of the ongoing testing before knowing what will be the next step is so nerve-racking! I try to not fix my thoughts on what can happen all but to take one step at a time. My mind tells me not to worry before there is a real reason for worrying. But my emotions sometimes take me on a rollercoaster ride. But I jump off the rollercoaster before it gets to hard.



Ok, that shall be all for now.
I just had to take down my emotions and share them with whoever is reading this.



Please excuse any mistakes in spelling or using wrong expressions. Firstly this disease is very new to me and secondly english is not my native language.



Thanks for reading this and maybe throwing in one or the other comment
