    Lupus

     



    Does anyone know a person that's been tested and had a diagnosis of Lupus??? I am not trusting the government Doctors anymore, I think they have known all along whats wrong with me. But I think they don't want me to collect full disabilty as a disabled Vet. Crazy stuff but I have all the sign's and just found out watching a movie the other day. So I went to a site and have been reading all about it. And mine started out just like the lady in the movie with a bad rash that I was hospitalized for 20 years earlier. Now all my other organs are involved and my vision is now going. Been coughing up blood then pissing blood and they can't say why??? Come on!!!

    Kurt, sometimes when dealing with the VA it becomes necessary to get with one of the advocate groups.... I'd recommend the DAV (Disabled American Veterans), the VFW, or the Veterans Outreach Center as some of the most effective advocate groups.... I've been dealing with Vet issues for way too long, and have seen all of these groups bend over backwards to help out another Vet..... They will also be able to suggest physicians and clinics for second opinions.....

    Thanks guys; Ya i have got to go find a private Doctor.
    My daughter sent me a Interactive symptoms checklist.
    I had everything on the checklist except one and I
    would have to be a woman to have had that one.
    If your bleeding and they have stuck camera's in
    every place to look and still can't find anything
    somethings wrong with that. I mean thats like
    saying your radiator is empty and you can't figure
    out where the water is going. It's gotta be going
    somewhere, right???
