Episode 27: MarlaJan Wexler - Lupus

MJ has had lupus for many years and it sent her to the emergency rooms many times before she got her diagnosis. In this discussion, we get a feel for how she was impacted by the gaslighting within the healthcare system and the lack of support at home. MJ talks about the symptoms of lupus and how the auto-immune disease affects her body. We also discuss patient advocacy and how meaningful it is for MJ to share with the community.

The song MJ selected is Walk by Foo Fighters.
