Can Lupus be cured?


Question:
I was just given results from my ANA test, and it shows positive. What can I do about it?

Answers:
First of all.. take a deep breath. A positive ANA is a factor in a NUMBER of things. Rhumetoid Arthritis being one.

Second if it is Lupus.. there is no cure, but more than anything Lupus has several forms and varies in just how debilitating it becomes. Start with www.lupus.org

Good luck and you can email me if you need to talk

Other Answers:
A positive ANA is only one factor in a diagnosis of lupus. Many infections or other ailments can make your ANA rise. Ask to get a ds-DNA test done (double strand DNA). Also, if you are (probably) female, have a butterfly rash on your face, swollen joints and pain plus other definitive blood markers, then you might have lupus.

You should seek medical attention and treatment. Lupus can not be cured, but your side effects and symptoms can be controlled. Best of luck to you.

No, there is no cure. I have lupus too, I use a product called ambrotose. It has helped me so much, my hair has grown back, my skin has cleared up and I can go outside without having to wear a sweater. I haven't had a flare up in five years. I recommend ambrotose to anyone with lupus. You can check it out at either www.glycostory.com/teamval or www.glycoscience.org this is the more scientific site and it has a disease specific review. I'm sorry about your diagnoses but it doesn't have to control your life completely. Another thing is watch what you eat, stay away from MSG, tomatoes, potatoes, eggplants, bell peppers and all night shade vegetables. Eat plenty eggs, gold circle farms is a good brand it has DHA and omega 3 which is good for people with lupus but you can only get it from the health food store. Garlic, onions, sardines are also good to eat. I hate all those things but I eat them anyway:-). If you have anymore questions feel free to e-mail me.
