✅ Yes! As many of you guessed, the October theme of the #kicklupus campaign is... vaccines!

💉 Vaccination is a crucial topic, especially for individuals dealing with lupus, as lupus has been proven to make people more susceptible to infections and complications. Therefore, promoting vaccination is paramount in the care and overall well-being of people with lupus.

🛡️ Vaccines play a vital role in bolstering the immune response against various diseases, reducing the risk of infections and their potential severity. For individuals with lupus, getting vaccinated can be a game-changer, providing added protection against infections that could be especially challenging for their immune systems.

Join us in the #kicklupus challenge! Share how you prevent infections in lupus. Your experiences and insights are valuable in creating a supportive community and raising awareness about the importance of proactive measures in managing lupus effectively.

Together, we can make a difference! 💜

💎 In line with our commitment to spreading awareness and information, we invite you to explore the importance of vaccination in patients with lupus through the #Lupus100 website. This initiative offers resources and educational materials in multiple European languages, facilitating access to critical information about lupus and vaccinations ⤵️

Thank you! Great moment indeed.

Stop smoking

I am so delighted to have found this page, very supportive and informative. I was diagnosed with SLE lupus in 2015, my symptoms started out with severe fatigue, poor balance, numbness, heat intolerance, and anxiety. I was unable to go back to work, so I tried analgesics for about 6 years. Tried every shot available, and all made me sick. In November 2023, I started on lupus Herbal formula from www. multivitamincare .org , the treatment worked incredibly for my SLE condition. I used the Natural Lupus Herbal formula for a total time period of 3 months, it totally reversed lupus. I had a total decline of all symptoms including joint stiffness, ulcers, and others. Sometimes, I totally forget I ever had Lupus.
