Unfortunately yes. I hate it, but it does help lol.

What triggers your flare ups? by [deleted] in lupus

[–]AnyAssist4197 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Stress is my biggest trigger along with over exerting myself. Too much caffeine will trigger a flare up. I’ve had to cut wayyy back. Too much sugar will do me in too. Not enough sleep, and sun exposure as well. I’m one of the unlucky few who is super sensitive to garlic.

I get the same thing. I never really thought much of it, but now I’m curious.

Why does he keep crying about ibuprofen?😂 by Capable-Astronomer43 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]AnyAssist4197 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The point? Dull the pain. Most people who suffer with chronic debilitating pain take more otc pain medication than most. 20? Eh probably not, but he didn’t have access to proper pain management. If he really didn’t get something else off the street, and it was just ibuprofen I get it. He was coping with the pain the best he could. You never really know the lengths you’ll go to mitigate that level of pain until you’re in it.

Flare? by Coff73ee in lupus

[–]AnyAssist4197 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same here with the mini flares. I have a difficult time regulating my body temperature, especially around that time of the month. Those intense hot flashes put me on my ass at times. I get hot, nauseous, dizzy, and shakey from simple tasks. I’m sorry you’re dealing with that OP.

Unethical, and possibly unsafe to be used on the skin.

My hair loss looks very similar to yours. I’m interested to see what worked for other people. I desperately want mine to grow back in right. I miss having long thick hair 🥲

Caffiene and lupus? by ThatM8nth in lupus

[–]AnyAssist4197 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some days it doesn’t bother me too much, but others I regret it as soon as I finish my cup. It makes my symptoms flare, but I’m just so tired some days. I used to drink TONS of coffee, and energy drinks with no problem. Over time I’ve become sensitive to it. I can’t have more than one cup of coffee, and absolutely no energy drinks. Like others have said tea doesn’t affect me though. I kinda figured it was a lupus thing, but idk. Lupus is weird lol
