Nailed it 🥹

How many of you have issues with your toenails or fingernails? Do your toenails fall off or do you have weak and fragile fingernails? How does your doctor handle this?

  1. Lol...my nails are thin and grooved. When my son married I splurged on fake nails...only to have them begin to fall off before the ceremony. For mother's day my sweet daughter painted my nails with a strength coat and then gel polish...guess what? The next day my polish was peeling off...hello little dab of super glue to reattach it.

    1. , oh, my. How annoying! It does seem like Lupus can find creative ways to cause problems, doesn't it?

  2. My second toe on my left foot nail has fallen off twice. Don’t k ow why. Need to ask my rheumatologist.

      Oh man, that must be bothersome (and perhaps painful).
      It's good to bring this to your rheumatologists attention.
