I promise I will update soon. I have just been swamped with school work, and honestly we are still in that "I don't have a clue what is happening with this disease" chapter. I guess it's the hormones trying to work in her that are making things go crazy. I have no clue. I will be back when I have some idea of what is happening. As it stands, she hurts pretty badly every day. That hasn't changed at all. Her head, her joints, and sometimes her muscles. It's been a really tough year. This too shall pass............
*My 13 yr old is an old lady that turns purple* My 13 yr old daughter has Mixed Connective Tissue Disease, (Lupus) which means multiple overlapping autoimmune diseases. She has Dermatomyositis, & Juvenile Arthritis. Yup, arthritis. She turns purple when her hands and feet get cold, which can happen from A/C. She was first diagnosed at age 6. My 11 yr old son has Psoriatic Arthritis. All of these are Autoimmune Arthritis. We share so you can learn!
