My First Celebrity Entry

My first lupus celebrity entry is ...Seal.

It took me a long time to decide who would be the first entry.  I read the first interview with Seal in 2009 where he openly discussed having discoid lupus.  Maybe watching how much coverage and little judgement Michael Jackson received when his lupus was discussed motivated him, who knows?  But this is the decade for lupus & we need celebrity spokespeople.  I have been volunteering but so far no calls from the LFA.  Lupus was in the top 5 health searches on AOL for 2009.  This is our time - we need to get more knowledge out there & more $ dedicated to research and development of new better treatments.

So Seal you are my #1 celebrity pick.  I hope you live up to this honor and start stepping up more for lupus.  We luppies need you!

Seal Quote to The Mirror 12/09:  ""I contracted lupus when I was 21 and it disfigured my face, I didn't know what the hell was going on and no one was able to diagnose what was going on. "

Lupus Celebrity Boo You Award to Karl Lagerfield:  This is what he had to say about Seal while making nasty comments about Heidi Klum and her family: "I am no dermatologist but I wouldn't want his skin.   Mine looks better than his. He is covered in craters."

xoxo

    Lupus Disease is an autoimmune disorder and it effects organ systems, skin, joints, and internal organs. Lupus can effect both men and women, but it is eight times as likely in women. It can also occur at any age, but the typical age range for someone to get Lupus is ten to fifty. It is normally more common in African American people as well as Asian people. This is a disease that is usually hereditary, but in some cases there is no family history of Lupus. Symptoms of this can vary in a wide variety of areas in the body. In the muscloskeletal area it affects the joints and causes mild to severe joint pain. Lupus is known to cause athritis in the hands. The skin is affected by rashes,Forms of treatment for Lupus has to concentrate on its side effects. There is no cure for the disease itself, so alleviating the symptoms is all a person can do. Anti-inflammatory medication is given for arthritis pain as well as the pleurisy. Skin rashes can be helped with corticosteriods, which typically comes in a cream form

    Lupus erythematosus is a category for a collection of diseases with similar underlying problems with immunity. Symptoms of these diseases can affect many different body systems, including joints, skin, kidneys, blood cells, heart, and lungs. Four main types of lupus exist — systemic lupus erythematosus, discoid lupus erythematosus, drug-induced lupus erythematosus and neonatal lupus erythematosus. Of these, systemic lupus erythematosus is the most common and serious form of lupus. Photosensitivity's relationship to and influence on the systemic manifestations of lupus remain to be defined. Mechanisms for photosensitivity might include: modulation of autoantibody location, cytotoxic effects, apoptosis induction with autoantigens in apoptotic blebs, upregulation of adhesion molecules and cytokines, induction of nitric oxide synthase expression and ultraviolet-generated antigenic DNA. Tumor necrosis factor alpha also seems to play a role in the development of photosensitivity.[
