   <p><inline-mention username="tanialm" user-id="6904550"/>, Thank you for sharing this important question with us. While there are a number of alternative therapies that some lupus warriors have found helpful to integrate into their treatment plans: 1) <a href='https://lupus.net/mental-health/complementary-alternative-therapies' target='_blank'>https://lupus.net/mental-health/complementary-alternative-therapies</a> 2) <a href='https://lupus.net/complementary-alternative-medicine' target='_blank'>https://lupus.net/complementary-alternative-medicine</a> That being said, there is absolutely no magic drop, or oil, or herb that can cure lupus. Everyone&#39;s journey is unique to them and their treatment plan may include some pharmaceuticals alongside some of the alternative therapies. Talk to your doctor to figure out a plan that works best for you and don&#39;t get caught up in the suggestions of some spammers who don&#39;t understand the realities of lupus! We hear you and you are not alone in this,<br> Gabby (team member) </p>

      <p><inline-mention username="tanialm" user-id="6904550"/> You are absolutely right there is no magic supplement that will cure lupus. If it was we would all be swallowing bottles of it. I often get those statement and I just ask them if they really understand what lupus is. They often can not say they do so I ask how can they really push their product for a cure. I think everyone has an opinion but the only one that count is yours as you work with your doctor. It can be frustrating to have to deal with people who&#39;s main goal is to sell you something. I love meditation and reiki and other alternative ways to cope with lupus but I tell everyone that things that boost my immune system aren&#39;t helpful in my journey. ~Racquel~ <a href='http://lupus.net' target='_blank'>lupus.net</a> team member</p>
