Hi sharon!
I have a lot of moles/warts too. I always attributed mine to my medicines (immunosuppresants). *shrug* but, I guess it depends on what medicines you are taking.
have you asked the doctor about it? I would, especially if it is something new...You know how everything can be lupus...Or a side effect.
Just my $.02 worth,

Hi, your right , the common answer to our questions from doctors is ( it's part of lupus). I'm curently taking 3oomg. Dilantin- singulair- prevacid- a muscle relaxer- zoloft- blood pressure med.- inhalers- motrin. I've been scared to take the other med. She gave me until I see my rheu. I've taken nortripaline before. I hated how it made me feel! I'm not useing my inhalers like i'm suppose to, because they give me headaches. If I complain too much I feel like a child.

Sharon,
you really hit the nail on the head...For several things.
1) at this point in lupus, I always wonder if it is really lupus or the medicines. I think I take about 20 pills per day. And that, is a huge improvement. A year ago, I was on 40 and self injections of two types of medicines!
2) you do, after a while, feel like you complain about everything. However, I will share a secret; you need to share regardless. I did not share a few "simple" things with my doctor. Only after she saw them, they weren't so simple or little! Trust me, I learned my lesson!
peace,
ladybrannon
