Lupus Linked to Some Birth Control Pills

A recent news article  reports on a study from McGill University in Montreal showing a link between lupus and certain types of birth control pills.  Susceptible women were found to be 1.5 - 2.5 times more likely to develop lupus thatnwomen who had not used the pills.  Further study of this link is certainly needed.  Lupus is a condition that I frequently see in my Social Security Disability cases.  The severity of symptoms varies from patient to patient.  However, when it is disabling the most prominent symptoms that I see are extreme fatigue and joint pain.  If you suffer from lupus and the condition keeps you from working you may qualify for Social Security Disability benefits.  For more information about Social Security Disability Claims, order a copy of my book, Unofficial Guide to Social Security Disability Claims, from my website, www.sharonchristielaw.com
