Lupus is an autoimmune disease that can affect almost every major organ in the body, including the heart, kidneys, skin, lungs and brain. Symptoms are unpredictable and can range from fatigue and joint pain to severe organ damage. Too often fatal, lupus is extremly difficult to diagnose and treat. The US Department of Health and Human Services estimates the number of Americans suffering from lupus at approximately 1.4 million-making lupus more common than leukemia, muscular dystrophy, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis and cystic fibrosis. Although there are many men and children living with lupus, 90% of those diagnosed are women. Women of Hispanic, Asian, Pacific Islander and Native American descent are also particularly vulnerable. SO LETS HELP FIND A CURE!!!
