Lupus and Depression seem to go hand in hand with me. Sick of. Living like this, no end to pain meds don't help and INR levels up and down. Not much would throw me over edge at moment. This is not living. Going blind don't help at all.

    Hi me again Having your INR levels up and down is not quite that common I don't know what type of Dr your seeing But my daughter says the clotting issues in lupas is usually one or the other So if you take meds for one or the other it could be dangerous You should see a Hematologist The us and downs could be creating depression It's amazing what causes you to become depressed She was quite concerned But seeing a blood Dr is gonna give you answers on how to keep your blood at a balanced level if your lupas has become out of control Please keep me updated I want you to be okwink
