Hi, my name is leilanio278. I’ve been getting tested for Lupus and Rhumatic Heart Disease and I have inflammation in my whole body, have been in a lot of pain and the doctors are having a hard time trying to find out what it is that’s causing this, I will see a specialist in Jan and have CT Scans done as well. I’m 22 and a mother to a 2yr old, last thing I want is to be sick and struggle to parent, any advice would be nice 🫶🏽
Being chronically ill definitely comes with its own set of complications, and we wish there was access to every type of specialist out there for all of the medical needs we have as complex patients. But realistically, not every single geographic location or insurance plan makes that feasible.

Living with a chronic illness or disability doesn’t mean you can’t go outside to explore or have adventures, but planning and preparing is key (and something not a lot of non-disabled people even realize).
