I have Lupus. I just found out recently. I have the (SLE) Lupus.
Is there anyone here that has lived a long time with it? What things have happened to you? How are your flare ups?

If you put a body through near death to kill off it's cell, what is the likelihood that cancer cells would die 1st, or at least before the cells we absolutely need?

I understand the concept of flossing, but have trouble doing it.
I tried using floss string, and could not force it through the gaps between my teeth as it felt like I was pulling my teeth apart.
I tried interdental brushes, but they were even worse, even with the thinnest brush, it would not get through the gap.

Now, since my teeth are so closely joined, does this mean bacteria cannot get to my gums?

I use mouthwash, and after gargling with it and swishing the stuff around my mouth, when I spit it out, I see nothing. Whereas other people have lots of "bits" when they do it.

I only worrying about flossing (which I have never actually tried), because although I brush regularly, have healthy teeth and have never had any dental work done, my teeth has a horrible yellowish tint, which the dentist says is normal, but people with worse teeth than me, have whiter teeth.

I read we have small cracks in the teeth which bacteria use to enter teeth and make them yellow. Is this true

I am a chef cooking for the elderly. I make diabetic cakes but want to put a more interesting topping on, other than jam. Does anyone have a diabetic icing/frosting recipe they could suggest?

Hey, I'm planning on starting a fitness schedule next week. I'm already thin and happy with my weight but I just want to tighten my body and stay healthy. I want to include jogging, pilates and aerobics in the program. I was wondering if anybody knows the time I should dedicate to each of these activities to have better results, like how many hours/week should I do each? I'd appreciate any input! Thanks!
