Life was progressing as expected; getting sick was never part of their plan. However, in its own distinct and sudden way, Lupus showed up in the lives of the men and women profiled in this book. Although their ages, locations and stories are different, they all share one thing in common: they refuse to give up hope, despite Lupus. Lupus: Real Life, Real Patients, Real Talk is the first book of its kind in relation to the disease. Journalist, Lupus patient and Lupus Foundation of America Board Member, Marisa Zeppieri-Caruana, sets out to find men and women across the nation who will share the hurdles of daily life when battling a debilitating and cruel disease. What she discovers is a community not broken and hopeless, but one that is optimistic and refuses to give in. These patients have encountered many obstacles - kidney transplants, open-heart surgeries, coma, and dialysis - yet they continue to persevere. They share their darkest moments and their future dreams. In addition to telling their stories, they discuss tips on how to manage and deal with the disease - emotionally, spiritually and physically. This book provides tangible information and inspiration for every Lupus patient and their loved ones. It is also an essential tool for those who are newly diagnosed and trying to navigate the choppy waters of chronic illness and daily life. Featuring Amy Kelly-Yalden, CEO of the Lupus Foundation of America, Southeast Chapter, and Magdalena Cadet, MD, FACR, Director of Rheumatology at New York Presbyterian Healthcare System, this book is not to be missed.

Lupus is an extremely common, potentially treatable, disease of the immune system. It affects approximately 1 in 1000 women and is more common than diseases such as multiple sclerosis and leukaemia. Despite this, there is little information concerning the disease in contrast to other illnesses of similar prevalence. Many people are unaware of the symptoms, treatment, and prevention of lupus. It is important that these topics are highlighted for many reasons. For example, a greater understanding of the symptoms of lupus will enable patients to recognise the symptoms earlier, and get treatment faster; before any serious damage is done. Similarly, awareness of preventative measures may reduce the number of cases of lupus that occur. From a different perspective, it would be of great use to have an easily accessible source of information available to lupus patients that would highlight issues such as treatment options and sources of support. In summary, although knowledge of lupus is growing, greater awareness of the disease amongst both patients and the general public is an issue that needs to be addressed.

It’s estimated that 1.5 million Americans, nearly five million people worldwide, have some form of lupus. Current data suggest it’s more common than cystic fibrosis, leukemia, muscular dystrophy, and multiple sclerosis combined. At present, the disease is unfamiliar to most and is widely misunderstood. This leads to high levels of misdiagnosis, belated diagnosis, or misdiagnosis that is potentially life-threatening. It could be a leading “sleeper” disease of modern times, with people suffering unacknowledged and untreated. In How to Stay Sane in Pain, author Karen Drennan-McEwan clarifies the key symptoms of the disease, which include chronic pain, and explains how it is currently diagnosed and treated. She offers a look at its history, medications, and their main side effects. From the author’s perspective of someone who suffers personally from lupus, as well as other patients’ testimonies, this guide describes how to achieve resilience and calm despite the disease. Drennan-McEwan offers a step-by-step mind-body approach, an approach rooted in the author’s experience of a massive lupus flare and utilizing her training as a counselor and psychotherapist.
