S04_E07 - Let's Learn About Lupus!

Did you know that in 2024, over 200,000 people in the U.S. alone had Lupus?  It's a condition that many of us have likely heard of, but it's one that often presents with a lot of questions - like where does it come from?  Who is most likely to get Lupus?  Is it a life-long condition?  And what help is available for those living with it?

On the next episode of the show, we'll be joined by Rheumatologist, Dr. Rawad Nasr, and he'll help us get our brains around Lupus, as well as the basics of autoimmune diseases at large.  This is one condition that has seen a lot of progress in terms of treatments and medications over the past decade (finally!), so this is a great chance to get some up-to-date knowledge from an expert in the field.  He'll discuss the origins of the condition (and the name!), who's at risk, what help is available from the medical community, and ways we all can support those living with it.  Come get wise with us!
