Lupus: Kidney And Heart Problems Posted: 10-07-05 08:40am
Hi
i am new to this forum. I am happy to
finally find person like myself I can
relate to. I have recently been
diagnosed with sle. I am experiencing
problems with my kidneys as well as my
heart. Lots of protein in the urine, I
am constantly out of breath even after
brief activities or walking short
distances. I am tired even sitting for
any period of time. I am told I should
sleep at least 8 hours but I am not a very
good sleeper so I am constantly tired.
My body is pink all over including my
eyelids. I have unexplained aches and
pains all over my body which are usually
brief. The bottom of my feet are
constantly soar especially when I am
walking after sitting for period of time.
Does anyone else have these symptoms?
Are they common to persons with lupus?
Thanks for your response.

I am unsure if I have lupus at this stage
but I can relate to some of the pains you
are having, in particular the soles of
your feet, I had some cortizone injections
recently which really helped, you might
want to have a go, just my 2 cents
thanks for your
response.
