Waking up with Lupus.

Lupus symptoms are flaring up again.
Woke up today and my joints were swollen and hot and achy. I couldn't even manage to wrap my fingers around my toothbrush or hairbrush. My head and neck were aching.. So I took some drugs and skipped my first class (an 8am).

Set an alarm for 9 so I could get ready for the rest of the day. My joints are still achy but at least I can move them now. Still have a slight headache and some swollen lymph nodes, and I may possibly throw up at any moment. I have a class at 10 that I really don't want to skip, though. I'm going to take the bus even though it would normally be faster to walk.

I look like what I imagine death's mistress to look like.

Oh well. We'll see how class goes while I'm tripped up on a plethora of medications.
It's probably not even worth going, but, I am.
