Hello everyone! Well, it’s been a minute since I chimed in. As some of you know I’ve faced humongous challenges health wise this past year. Because of that, I no longer do radio/tv or any media. From September 2021 thru Jan 2022 I was horribly disfigured by the rash of Dermatomyositis (a rare disease), and then in Jan 2021 I had a (myositis) muscle incident that left me weak in my torso and upper extremities. I also have associated Interstitial Lung Disease. It really didn’t seem like it at the time but I have survived !!

I was on 3 pills and infusions-now I’m down to 2 meds and an IVIG infusion every other month. Hoping this will continue to stabilize the disease process.

I think everyone knows this newsletter is somewhat irregular since I’ve been sick. I appreciate those of you still opening it. In fact I was just looking at the analytics and 2–3k open each one so I’m glad to still have some value.

I no longer do radio/tv or media. I am still writing with Newsbreak. I’m very active on Twitter (@MsLashaunTurner)- other than that I’m bored lol..

Sharing some pics 1 year into (DM) Dermatomyositis.

IVIG#5 ..Instead of being all negative in my 1 year anniversary- I said look on the bright side. No rash in 8 months. No further muscle flares. My lungs don’t seem any worse. Overall I maybe loss 15% strength in my torso. I do suffer from fatigue, aches and pains but so much better than 8 months ago!
