I am a male over 60 any others out there?

Hello and welcome, !

I know people that don't know much about Lupus assume it's mostly a "women's disease". But, we both know that's not true. Plenty of men live with Lupus. I do hope some of our male community members see your post chime in here and let you know what has been working well for them. Also, one of our former patient leader's has written about being a man living with Lupus and you can read some of his work here -- https://lupus.net/living/men and here -- https://lupus.net/author/clq2020. Emmitt Henderson is an active Lupus warrior and he shares about his Lupus journey on this site and other places ( https://www.lupusresearch.org/emmitt-henderson-finding-strength-in-building-community/). You can read one of his pieces here -- https://lupus.net/living/man-with-lupus.

Also, this conversation from our forums is a few years old, but I thought you might find it worth checking out -- https://lupus.net/forums/men-with-lupus.

I realize I haven't offered even one treatment suggestion and that's intentional. I am not a man and I am not in my 60's, so I feel like any input I offer would be well intended, but not helpful. I do hope some of the links I provided prove useful for you and that you get some helpful feedback from other community members!

Best, Erin, Team Member.
