Hello everyone,

How are you doing today? 😊

As we get older we have a lifetime of experiences that have made us wiser.

If you could give your younger self one piece of advice, what would it be?

Take care,

Somya from the Carenity team 🌼

@JimHupp so don't know if you are here or what your condition is but, ( there is always a but). This past February I went and received mesenchymal stem cell infusions and it changed my life. You can not get the treatment in the US.

@Robinj63 Yes, I wish my mom was still here so I could tell her just how much she was right about.

Hello, I would slow down and not be such a perfectionist. I am now 71 and believe me, I would not have worked so hard!!! I am paying a price for over doing everything. People with Lupus are over achievers. I have been a guest speaker at many doctors' conventions. They have learned many aspects of Lupus. THE NAME IS LUPUS FROM A PATIENT'S POINT OF VIEW!!! I do not want anymore awards!!!

I WANT A CURE!!!

Wishing you the Best! Michele AKA Mickey

@mickey I agree with you. I would slow down too. I would not have pushed hard to complete each task in one day if the job did not require it. I would have put safety in the first place. Now I am painfully paying the price. I now have intractable pain as a result.

Hello, I have developed SLE, aka Lupus Disease and I am paying the price. I was an overachiever and I wish, I could slow down!!!! I am from the East Coast and it is a way of life. Here, I hope to make a difference if I slow down. Take care of yourself, because no one can do it for you!!! I wish you well dear friend and remember--Do Not Do What I Did!!

Love and Blessings Mickey aka Michele

@mickey I'm guilty of doing the 70 to 100 hours a week. I ended in a coma with respiratory failure. Slow down, it will end
