Are you overlooking this simple daily health check? 🚽

When you have Lupus, you’re used to checking your skin and your joints—but when was the last time you really looked at your urine? It sounds strange, but it’s actually one of the most important ways to catch kidney inflammation before it causes permanent damage.

Our latest blog from the specialists at our rheumatology clinic in Cary, North Carolina, breaks down the "silent" signs of lupus nephritis and why your morning routine could be a lifesaver.

When they're not in the clinic, you’ll likely find our founders advocating for the future of our practice!

Here’s a glimpse of Dr. Subedi and Dr. Gupta attending the Carolinas MGMA 2026 Spring Conference last weekend at the Wild Dunes Resort in Isle of Palms, South Carolina. 🏖️

They’re bringing back the innovative strategies that allow us to provide the most efficient, high-quality care. Their vision and tireless dedication are the heart of everything we do. Here’s to the bright future ahead!

Sip responsibly! While many raise a glass for St. Patrick's Day, it's crucial to understand how alcohol interacts with autoimmune conditions. 🍺🍀

The Risk of Heavy Drinking

Drinking heavily clearly affects your immune system. If you drink too much, you are:

✔️ Weakening your body’s ability to fight off infections.
✔️ Damaging your gut lining, allowing harmful bacteria into your bloodstream.
✔️ Increasing inflammation throughout your entire body.
✔️ Reducing the important immune cells that protect you.
✔️ Slowing your body’s ability to heal wounds.

Heavy alcohol use increases your risk of both infections and organ damage.

What About Moderate Drinking?

Some studies suggest light or moderate drinking might slightly reduce inflammation in certain autoimmune conditions. However, this protective effect is not proven and varies greatly from person to person.

The Bottom Line

If you have an autoimmune disease, don't guess about your limits. Talk with your doctor about whether alcohol is safe for you and how much, if any, is appropriate. Make an informed choice to keep your health "in the green."

This , we urge you to get your GFR (Glomerular Filtration Rate) checked.

Why it matters in rheumatology:

✔️ Many rheumatic diseases can impact kidney function.
✔️ Certain medications used in our field require regular kidney monitoring.
✔️ Early detection of kidney issues is key to optimal long-term outcomes.

Talk to your rheumatologist today about getting your GFR checked. Your kidneys deserve the same proactive attention as your joints and connective tissues.

Happy International Women’s Month! 🌸

Did you know that many rheumatic conditions disproportionately affect women? That’s why having a team of dedicated female experts is so vital to what we do.

Our female doctors and staff bring a unique perspective to patient care, combining clinical excellence with deep empathy.

We are so grateful for the women on our team who help our community stay active, healthy, and empowered.

Autoimmunity can feel like a loss of control, but you still hold the pen.

On the days when your body feels like a stranger, try to treat it with the same compassion you would offer a dear friend who is struggling. It isn't "failing" you; it is trying its best to protect you, even if its map is a little confused.

You don't have to be 'fine' to be incredible. You are allowed to take up space, to rest without guilt, and to be proud of yourself for simply making it through a difficult afternoon.

Keep going. Not because you have to be perfect, but because your light is needed, even on the days it feels a little dim.
