It’s the Flu

I’ve been doing pretty well this season. In previous years, I’d have already suffered from a case of strep and a sinus infection. I’ve been really diligent when it comes to washing my hands and not touching my face (which I have a habit of doing.) Obviously I slipped up somewhere, because I’m as sick as sick can be right now. The act of sitting upright to even type this is exhausting.

One of the things that really suck about getting the flu and lupus is the fact that the body pain/fatigue mimic a possible lupus flare. While I continue to suffer from lupus symptoms regularly, I’ve managed to not have an actual flare for quite some time. Let’s hope it remains that way.

In the meantime, it’s back to bed for me.
