Rinaina,
I was afraid that there might be potential problems but am glad to hear you are coming through it all right. I hope I will cope as well. I talked to another patient with Rheumatoid Arthritis (autoimmune as well) a little while ago. She told me that there is a silver lining because rheumatic pains, like in lupus, will decrease. I have dry eyes and mouth as part of the lupus. For a while I used cyclosporine drops for the eyes and just plenty of liquids for the dry mouth. It's great to be able to hear from veterans while being so anxious during the beginning.
Thanks,
Heidi
