LupyKatie: That’s got to be frustrating. I’ve never heard about the stickers. That’s so silly.

Oh one more thing. One of his clients told him about some holistic hollograms. They have little stickers that you put on where your having pain and VOILA the pain goes away! And they also have little hologram stickers for energy! you put them on the bottom of your foot and a miracle happens…You have energy!! After spending $120 on 2 pages of stickers which i didnt want to spend I’m here to report that SUPRISE…it didnt work! Can you imagine Drs saying…Oh here…put this sticker on and it will be ALL BETTER!! I wish…

I have lupus and I have a very well intentioned husband who thinks that hollistic medicine will cure me. Everyone tells me to that multivitamins, excercise, smoothies, will be the way! If that were the case…why hasnt the medical doctors said anything??? My husband is very aggitated that my primary doctor hasnt recommended “natural” cures…maybe because there arent any!!!!!!

tell me about it. Everyone has a cure but dont have a clue what it is. Too many people are quick to “look” and judge and say oh your sick you can’t be

Michelle: It’s crazy, isn’t it? Most people mean well enough, but they just don’t get it. It’s so hard to explain to them that boosting the immune system of a lupus patient is bad. They just don’t understand what lupus does.

Hey Jeff,
I can relate to this post!!! My biggest problem is with family members always trying to get me to read about the latest “cure” or the best food to eat, or if I only took THESE vitamins….it puts a lot of pressure on me and then it’s MY fault for not trying all of these things, my fault that i am still sick.. very frustrating.
