K vuI kVA :k 7 dZn V' Now we know better It’s one of the “collagen dis- eases” meaning that it attacks the fibrous tissues (Rheumatoid arthritis is another collagen disease but there are important differ- ences) You pronounce it and well refer to it today as just “lupus” although it is true that- there is another disease with the same first - name called lupus vulgaris The lupus we are discussing often has a characteristic sign a butterfly-shaped rash over the bridge of the nose That is merely a sign it is not the important part of the disease Lupus in the acute form can be fatal Yet on the other hand it teSeC 11! say that was an interesting lecture I thought out my entire summer wardrobe” can continue for many many years often with long periods of quiescence as in the case of R M's husband MAY BE FEVER There may often be (in addition r to the rash which may also elsewhere on the body) fever muscular aches and joint distress Unlike rheumatoid arthritis lupus can manifest itself in other organs of the body The cause of lupus is not known and hence there is no assurance that it can be cured However as I said earlier it often can remain under control for indefinitely long periods even if not cured There is no new treatment other than the use of steroids — cortisone and kindred medications However within the last few weeks there has been one interesting development — an accurate test for the disease which is something we have not had in the past The new test was announced by ap-pea- scientists at the National Institutes cf Health and they tell us it is simple and quick and accurately picks out cases ©f lupus as distinguished from rheumatoid arthritis The older tests weren’t too effective at discriminating between the two different diseases A test of course is not a cure Still every particle of information that we can gain about any disease is ultimately helpful in understanding it and treating it Lupus is still a baffling disease but we are learning more about it as time goes on No that is is NOT a reliable gauge Nor there blood for presany “right”figure sure The "right” pressure will vary from one individual to another Likewise remember that blood pressure is not just one number It is two such as 13090 (or “130 over 90”) The ratio is important as well as the actual figures In short the matter is complicated and depends so much on other physical characteristics that my very best advice is: Leave it up to your doctor If he says it’s “a "Dear Dr Mdner: I have a little high” or “high” or “very fatty tumor on the muscle of my right arm Is there any way ef high” do What he tells you to do removing it except by surgery?
