Lupus And Endo/fibroids
Posted: 06-19-06 04:44am

Is there any relation between lupus causing endo (thick skin in the uterus) and or fibroids?? For the past five months I have been bleeding nonstop. Been taking meds called duphaston, taking 30mg a day which helps stop the bleeding. Went for a d&c about two weeks ago to help stop the bleeding but results... I am still bleeding. Now I am taking meds called surgestone 25mg a day and I am still bleeding. The doctor had also prescribed exacyl 500mg taking two in the morning and two in the evening. Nothing has happen yet but what are my options. Its coming to a point where I may become anemic as the doctor had ordered blood work to test for this. I have been taken off all lupus meds ( was taking placquenil and imuran) so far the lupus had not reacted but I am afraid it may with all this gyno bleeding I have been experiencing. Any input would be much appreciated.
