Dear Elizabeth,
I'm so sorry you're going through a bad time. Within the last few years several new medications have emerged. You might want to let your doctor know how miserable you are and see if he can prescribe something new to relieve your pain and fever. With fever it's always important to look for an associated infection. Sometimes it seems like there's no solution, but you might be surprised if you call your doctor's office. I wish you the best, Elaine

Hi Liz,
I'm glad to hear you'll be seeing your doctor this week.
The prognosis for both lupus and juvenile arthritis is much better than it was only a few years ago. There are lots of new meds and new information showing the importance of diet and lifestyle for healing.
Living with a chronic disease can be stressful and this can also affect your health. You might want to read this blog I just finished on reducing the effects of stress in lupus, Stress and Lupus. Hope your appointment goes well, Elaine
