I am a 54 year old woman who has been having mild symptoms of lupus for approximately one year. I have a positive ANA and low C3 and C4 levels, and am currently taking plaquenil and napoxen, as needed. I am stable at this time, although I suffer from hip and back pain, fatique and mental fog almost daily.
My 24 year old daughter is beginning to experience symptoms. She has Raynaud's syndrome (for approximately 3 years) and has been experiencing lower back pain, which worsened after running. She recently had an MRI and is waiting for the results. She lives in Manhatten, NY and has an extremely stressful job-lifestyle. I am writing to see if she could possibly qualify for the Vitamin D and/or IFNa vaccine series? My sister has Graves disease and our Father, now deceased suffered for most of his adult life from primary laterial sclerious. Any information that you could give me regarding possible preventive treatments would be greatly appreciated. Thank-you, Sara Schilawski , Bloomington, Illinois
