Hello,
My girlfriend is a 14 year Lupus survivor. She's went from having difficulty going up stairs to doing half marathons, trail races, century bike rides, and even a short triathlon. She's very active and tries to work out nearly every day of the week.
But things still aren't easy for her. Of course she has a team of doctors, but they don't necessarily know much about Lupus and athletics, so I'm just inquiring here to see if there are others here with Lupus or related auto-immune diseases and how you (or someone you know) has dealt with it.
Thanks,
Tim
PS. Yes I did do a forum search and found a little, but thought it was time to ask again.
PPS. I also posted this in the regular triathlon forum. Sorry for the double posting.
