Praying for Muni Long during this flare, keep listening to your body and being transparent with your Lupus journey. It is Warriors like you that help so many people, unknowingly, get through their tough times and journey. .o.l.n.

Something that was brought to my attention almost 2 years ago. So many of us were told, “Your ANA is negative, so it can’t be autoimmune.”
And for SO many of us… that could not have been further from the truth.

Here’s the part nobody talks about ⬇️
Your globulin level (and your A/G ratio) can reveal chronic immune activation even when standard antibody tests come back “normal.”

Globulin is a group of immune proteins your body makes — including immunoglobulins (antibodies). When it’s elevated, it can be a MAJOR red flag for autoimmune activity… long before an ANA or SSA ever turns positive.

High globulin + low A/G ratio shows up in:
-Sjögren’s
-Lupus (SLE)
-Rheumatoid arthritis
-Mixed connective tissue disease
-Chronic inflammation
-Hypergammaglobulinemia
…and more.

If your symptoms scream autoimmune but your ANA is negative, ask your doctor to look at your globulin, total protein, and A/G ratio. Sometimes the biggest clues are hiding in the labs we were never taught to question.

Lupus awareness should happen 365 days, 24 hours, 7 days a week. Although they say Lupus can be invisible, there are times that the Warrior’s Lupus is visible to the human eye. For me, one of my visible realities of Lupus is called alive so Reticularis which is a common skin finding consisting of a mottled reticulated vascular pattern that appears as a lace-like purplish discoloration or transparency of the skin.

Livedo reticularis (LR) can manifest as a result of a wide range of conditions, including:
Hematologic and hypercoagulable states: Such as thrombophilia, an increased tendency for blood to clot
Connective tissue diseases: Such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis.

The stretching and transparency of the skin is VERY painful. I haven’t felt this way in a long time, can somebody tell my insurance company that they need to approve my Saphnelo (Lupus treatment) so that I can not have to suffer with the Livedo Reticularis. .o.l.n. 💜

Lupus can cause depression, anxiety and PTSD so we want to check on everyone’s mental health status. Today’s Mental Health Check-In 💬🧠

How are you really feeling today? Take a moment to pause, breathe, and check in with your mind and emotions. It's okay to not have it all together. Give yourself grace.

Whether it's rest, prayer, a walk outside, or talking to someone—do one thing today that nurtures your mental health.

Remember: your peace is worth protecting. Your mind matters every single day. 💚
