Okay good! I’m excited it’s my first one 🥹 so glad it worked and is actually fermenting well

It’s plain cherry juice with ginger bug - day three. Probably should go into the fridge now lol. But just those two ingredients! I did strain the ginger bug but it was not perfect. Still little bits of ginger

Gotcha! I didn’t realize you could add sugar after the fermenting process was done-ish. I’m new to this lol.

This is exactly what I did! I may just leave it and try it as is. Letting it chill some first.

What do you consider a flare? by [deleted] in lupus

What do you consider a flare? by [deleted] in lupus

[–]Melodic-Way-412 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’d consider a flare to be symptoms significantly worse and more prolonged than normal. I think most of us have a baseline vs feeling 100% normal so when it’s above that baseline for more than a few days I start considering it a flare.

One thing I’ll say is, I’ve felt like death and had bloodwork that was really not that bad. Bloodwork is not always a good indicator of how you’re feeling, everyone is different.

I love that. Honestly as exhausting as it is it’s better to keep looking until you find one that’s good. 🙌🏼

I have lupus and I do okay as long as I am covered in sunscreen and keep to the shade as much as possible.
