My son is 17yrs old and started showing symptoms 3yrs ago. He was perfectly fine and then he started having some pain. As an avid hiker , he brushed it off. But things just got worse. Rashes , fever blisters, swollen joints and muscles. He has also been diagnosed with LUPUS, Raynaud's and Neuropathy. He has had a long list of meds and is now taking Cellcept. It has been showing some signs of promise. He has not been able to go to school for 2yrs now but is bravely going to attempt it in January. As a Mom I am doing my best to find out all the info out there. I want him and everyone else afflicted with this disease to lead quality lives.
