I was invited to
an event on 10th May, 2017 and was told it was World Lupus Day. I wondered
what Lupus was, yes Google is my friend but I decided to go hear from the
doctors and satiate my curiosity. I
remember reading a while ago that Selena Gomez, yes the singer, had Lupus. This
event was organized by the Rheumatology Unit of the Lagos State University
Teaching Hospital (LASUTH) under the leadership of Femi Adelowo, who is a
Professor of Medicine and consultant Rheumatologist at Lasuth, President of the
African League of Associations of Rheumatology (AFLAR) and Chairman, Executive
committee of World Body of Rheumatology (ILAR). Impressive, right?
Prof. finally satiated my curiosity with his
speech.
What is Lupus? You ask
