There is no single blood test to diagnose lupus. But tests and several criteria are available to help a doctor make a diagnosis. The Lupus Research Alliance has funded studies aimed at finding more definitive diagnostic tools.

The 21st Century Cures Act has passed through Committee and is up for a vote in the House. Right now, it’s just a bill on Capitol Hill but YOU can help make it a law.
Don’t just like or reblog this. Take a moment and email your State Representative. Urge them to vote to pass the bill and send it to the Senate.
Hey guys, FYI--as always, I’m sorry to not be around so frequently, but finally one of the reasons I’m not around is relevant!!! (although I’d argue that End Times’ themes of chronic illness make it relevant ;-) [link])
I’m lucky enough to be interning with the Lupus Foundation of America right now, and just finished up a two day advocacy event on Capitol Hill! I wanted to thank everyone there that made it such a great first internship experience for me, foundation members and advocates alike, and all the reps we met with for their support (right...?).
In the meantime, I’ve been tweeting about the event here [link] and hopefully will continue to be tweeting throughout my internship experience!!
As usual, I’m afraid, blog on hiatus, but feel free to send in questions or just let me know how you’re doing. I’d love to hear from you.
(and who knows... maybe this new greater level of involvement with the autoimmune community will give me an excuse to take the time away from Mad Manatee Productions again and start back up. We’ll see.)
