@@sanaaangel95 thankyou! :)

@@juliecasey5250 Thanks so much for your comment, Julie! 🥰 I'm so happy that this video helped you feel a connection in articulation for your own thoughts and feelings as well. I'm not promoting coaching or making it a main income source like I have done in the past. However just as I stated in this video of going with the flow, if someone comes along who it feels like a perfect fit for a coaching relationship (which is rare), that is something I would want to take on. I have met with a few people on consultation zoom calls over the last few months, but it just wasn't the right fit so I referred them elsewhere for better support with what they were in need of. If you'd like to meet on a free consultation call to see if we are a good fit, I'd love to meet with you. Even if I can help you by referring you elsewhere or to next steps without going into a coaching relationship, I'd love to help you with that. If you want to meet for a consult, just send me an email and let me know. :)

@@juliecasey5250 you're welcome! I feel blessed to be able to share this with those who need to hear it! 🥰

@@wychoo4889 thankyou!

@@juliecasey5250 Awe thank-you so much! 🥰

Great news .What was your pred dosage?

@@user-ml6sc3zr6b Thankyou! I have only been on Hydroxychloroquine, 200mg per day. My dosage got raised to 300mg per day last winter because I was having some joint issues, and it helped with that, but then I came back down to 200mg again.

@@pantro1014 Lol 😆 my whole channel is dedicated to various topics related to the specifics. I also have the shorts i made right before this that gives more specifics. Thanks for your concern though, I'm fine. 😘

Agreed! Thankyou!

@@user-ml6sc3zr6b I'm sorry you are going through this! It can be challenging to find a good doctor and get a proper diagnosis for lupus. There isn't one singular blood test for lupus, but a combination of different ones that can point to it. I think the main one that helped support my diagnosis along with other signs in bloodwork and symptoms was the anti-dsDNA antibody test. That helped confirm it on top of the other abnormalities in my bloodwork and symptoms. This is a video I made on abnormal bloodwork that aids in getting a lupus diagnosis: ruclips.net/video/hFEPLXY_4aw/видео.htmlsi=CfFo2ltEAqNkOvcB I hope it helps!

@@juliecasey5250 thankyou for commenting with a word of appreciation! 🥰

@@TammieRenea The grief absolutely comes in cycles. I understand. ❤ You are not alone in this!

@@wychoo4889 I'm all about keeping it as simple and healthy as possible! :) thanks for watching.

@@sassysassysassy1 That sounds like a very similar story to many of us. I'm sorry you've been through so much with this! I hope you get clear answers soon and I hope my channel is helpful to you in both your diagnosis journey and your healing journey! Sending you and your son both so much love and support! ❤

@@SabrinaDawn444 Thankyou so much, I'm so glad you found it helpful! 🥰

@@sassysassysassy1 I'm so sorry you have been going through this and your son too! Its definitely worth having him evaluated and getting some bloodwork done to see if he meets any of the diagnostic criteria. Lupus is challenging, I hope my channel helps you both! Good luck to you guys! Youre not on this journey alone. ❤

@@averyduke. Hey Avery! I'm sorry you're going through this right now. Lupus is tough, but so are you! Of course I can only speak from personal experience, but I have had MANY symptoms that I thought would never go away that actually HAVE gone away completely, so I do believe there is hope for others as well! I encourage you to check out my other videos on healing for some more support, guidance and inspiration. Sending you so much love and healing! You are not alone on this journey! ❤

@@melissa23347 I'm so sorry, Melissa! My heart goes out to you! I'm curious, did you take the antivirals by any chance? I have friends who had the virus before anything ever came out for it and more than one of them have lasting BP and heart related issues since having the virus. I wonder if the antivirals help reduce chances of that now. The research seems to be mixed on it as of now.

@@healwithlaurennicole I didn’t. I didn’t go to the doctor either time and just managed it at home. I did and still do take lysine though which seems to help with lingering symptoms like sore throat and the rash.

@@melissa23347 I hope you are able to avoid it and stay as healthy as possible the rest of this year! I know its going around in my area. I just wish it would go away!

@@josie3722 it shouldn't be, but back when everything was happening, I know of a lot of videos that got taken down and demonetized because of it, so I'd rather not take that chance if I don't have to lol. You never know.

@@healwithlaurennicole you’re right it shouldn’t be. Many of us have autoimmune diseases *because* of covid. Myself included. Covid triggered my illnesses. It is frustrating that we aren’t realizing how dangerous it is. Especially for us that are predisposed genetically etc to AI diseases. I read a study indicating that a covid infection (even a mild one) can increase our risk of developing an AI disease by about 40% and also significantly increases the risk of developing or exacerbating AI diseases for those of us that already have them. It is disheartening that in communities like this we can’t talk even talk about it, despite the fact that it is continuing to do so much harm. It is ridiculous that illness has been politicized, and many of us are left to suffer in silence and expected to get sick(er) over and over again and just “normalize” it.

@@tt_looking_glass I'm sorry you've had to deal with it three times already! It sounds awful! Compared to how quickly/slowly my body usually bounces back from colds and flus (its usually at least 2 weeks if not longer), I feel fairly confident that the antiviral is what helped me get over it so quickly. This isn't my norm either. Although in remission, I have been bouncing back a bit better and quicker than when I wasn't in remission. But I definitely think the antivirals helped.

@@hannahw2697 OMG! Hannah I'm so sorry. :( Did you have access to an anti-viral? I really don't know if I would have done as well as I have if I hadn't had that medicine. Lupus is so challenging in so many ways. How are you doing now?

@@healwithlaurennicole I did take the anti viral, but after 2 days I couldn’t do it anymore. The taste! Omg! And I’m a military spouse and my husband isn’t stationed here so I was on my own with 3 kids. One had covid as well, and one had strep, and the 3rd needed me to drive him to and from school. It was a rough week.

@@hannahw2697 I'm sorry! The taste was literally AWFUL. It was torture lol. I get it.

@@GianniVitucci Thanks! And of course! I've never had this without the antivirals, and every strain is different too. So its hard to know for sure. All I have to compare is my trajectory before I took them and then after. Who knows. 🤷‍♀️ But I think it was worth it as of now.

@@risacostello-falvo4539 Hello! Yes, my entire channel is filled with videos explaining how I have healed myself. :) It cannot be explained all in one single video. I hope you will check out the rest of my channel to learn more. Thank-you for being here! 🥰

@healwithlaurennicole can you simplify meds you are taking that have worked for you..and any vit supplements in a couple sentences please. I am able to watch only on a limited basis.TY so very kindly...

@@risacostello-falvo4539 Sure! I am only on Hydroxychloroquine. I only take regular multivitamins. But I also enjoy tumeric & ginger tea on a regular basis. Honestly the meds and supplements for me are only about 10-15% of feeling better. Its all the lifestyle changes I've made that are 85-90% of why I am healed. I live much more slowly now, work 26-30 hours per week instead of my previous 40+, I listen to my body, don't push myself, I prioritize sleep and rest on a daily basis, I put my needs first as much as I can. I no longer constantly sacrifice myself and my needs to prioritize work and every other person in my life at my own expense. I don't do any of that anymore. I've embraced slow and simple living, intentional living, holistic healing, and creating a life I truly love and enjoy. I've done a ton of mindset work and emotional healing, rewiring my nervous system, and using my symptoms as a guide for my healing. All of that is the 90% of why I feel better, and thats why its hard to summarize it all. Its a lot. Thats what i have dedicated my channel to explaining and helping others make these changes in their own lives. :)

@@linda7999 Hey Linda! I'm so sorry you have been ignored and treated poorly for so long. But I'm so glad you finally have a doctor who is taking this seriously and helping you! Definitely don't give up fighting for answers and the proper treatment! You deserve so much better than everything they have put you through so far. Good luck to you. ❤

@@kassandrarivera6174 I love this for you! Thanks so much for sharing! I agree 100% worth it, even if its less money. Nothing is worth sacrificing our health so severely for.

@@user-vt5ic9mz2c Glad you found it helpful! :) Happy to help!

@@ChristaRose-1 so many of us have such similar stories and experiences!

@@jackiecoy5546 I'm sorry you have been through so much with lupus over the years. It's definitely a challenging disease. But you are correct, there are things we can do to help ease symptoms and feel better by taking great care of ourselves, as much as possible. Thankyou. Sending you so much love and healing! 💖

@@keamwd Yes I couldn't agree more! I'm so sorry you had that experience. I know it's so frustrating and it delays treatment that we so desperately need! Hydroxychloroquine has been somewhat helpful for me too BUT like you said, I was having flares still back before I changed my entire lifestyle (#1 being going from FT to PT work). Hydroxychloroquine is mostly important for preventing further organ damage, but feeling better on a daily basis requires us to change everything about how we live from day to day. Even then, it took me YEARS of making these changes and seeing slow improvements until I got to the point where I am now, symptom-free. Its not easy getting here, but it is possible! Sending you so much love and healing. You are not alone in this! 💖

@@melissa23347 Love this perspective!!

@@hereim5648 Hey, thanks for your comment! I feel the same way. I small talk very well with coworkers, acquaintances, etc. I know there is value in it and I agree it is a necessary part of life to participate in these shallow relationships on some level. But I'm focusing more here people I choose to spend my limited free time and energy with on a regular, weekly basis. I don't choose to spend my weekly time with people in my social circle who are surface-level acquaintances or who are always taking advantage of me or one-sided caring and effort like I've experienced in the past. I'm not saying I don't associate with people out in the world at all unless there is deep, meaningful friendship. But out of the people I choose to spend my life with, those relationships need to be deep and mutual for me.

@@thejulieesmith Thanks for your insight! I definitely feel the same!

@@pd6923 Hey Pete! Thanks so much for your comment! I have been there as well, chasing people who leave, mostly from misunderstanding. But I've learned that sometimes people are committed to misunderstanding you when they have decided to move on with their lives without you in it. And thats okay too. I don't ever chase after anyone anymore either. I'm glad you've realized that never works out for us as well. You ARE more important than work, its not worth sacrifing our health for. I'm thankful to have learned that at a young age, although I was forced to learn it through my health challenges, but thats a bright side I can be greatful for, to have learned these lessons so young. Sending you so much love and healing! 🥰

@@user-cu2lw9wy8xSending you love and healing! 🥰

@@lifewithspirit323 Wheelchairs can be SO FREEING! Good luck to you with it! And yes, being an introvert and highly sensitive, its even MORE exhausting dealing with toxic people and situations created by them lol. I hear you! ❤

@@Hopscotch_24 Yes! I've met so many great people online as well who I feel like we would be good friends! Thats one really cool thing about the internet, connecting like-minded people. 🥰

@@MrShinentwist I'm sorry you're going through all of this! It's definitely not easy. I encourage you to check out the rest of my channel and videos about healing. Sending you love! Thank-you for being here!

@MrShinentwist My husband and I had not slept the bed prior to Co-Vid. It's hard for relationships. Illness is bad. Remission can be a thing, but lupus can be like cancer. It can destroy any part of my body organs when it is recurring. I can describe it like I got hit by truck when it flares. I keep searching for answers when I get some energy, and I'm wondering why I am so sensitive to heat and cold. I totally understand that some people face suicide over painful situations. Sometimes, I think God abandoned me?

@@user-cu2lw9wy8x I'm so sorry you have these feelings sometimes, I think we have all been there unfortunately. Lupus is not easy. But seeing our bodies as working FOR us rather than against us and focusing on how we can support them in healing as they struggle, being in a partnership with them rather than in a battle against them, that can definitely help. Asking what our illness has come to teach us. I do not believe God abandons anyone, He is always here for us and waiting on us to come back to him. Sending you so much love and healing. You are not alone in this! ❤

@@MrShinentwist glad it resonated!

@@melissa23347 thankyou!

@@tt_looking_glass Thanks Daniela! I know you understand this well. I'm sorry you do! Its definitely frustrating. Thanks for sharing your experience with us too so that others feel validated and not alone!

@@Hopscotch_24 They are the best!

@@sweetfairyish Hey! Thanks so much for your comment! I truly appreciate you taking the time to share all of this with me on this video. I'm so glad you found it helpful! Your story with work is similar to mine, I had the same experience! I talk about that a lot on this channel. I hope that more of my videos bring you what you're looking for! 🥰 You've got this! You ARE already healing! 💖

@@mehrulnisa8793 I am only on Hydroxychloroquine for my Lupus SLE, but I manage it mostly through the lifestyle changes I talk about on this channel.

@@ErnestLemmingway Hey! I'm only on Instagram. I've had Twitter accounts in the past and I never liked it, tried multiple times lol. Its just not my preferred platform. I agree with you 100% on there being such a gap in understanding between the science and the woo woo, lol. I've made a handful of videos already bridging that gap, but people still need more for sure.
