Every 30 minutes someone is diagnosed with Lupus. Lupus rates in New Mexico are TWICE the national average. Nine of ten Lupus patients are women. Lupus strikes women mostly during their childbearing years. There have been no new FDA approved drugs for lupus in over 40 years. To date, there is no cure for lupus. Someone you know has Lupus.
