Life With Lupus - Yadi's Story

Life With Lupus - Yadi's Story

Today on the podcast I have an extra special guest. If you are at all interested in understanding some of the difficulty in diagnosing lupus, the toll that can take on an individual or perhaps you are dealing with lupus and its effect on multiple organ systems – then you will find the following conversation to be incredibly enlightening.

Yadi Castro was diagnosed with lupus 8 years ago however, her journey to that diagnosis was quite remarkable. Misdiagnosed a number of times from having an ailment with her gallbladder through to leukemia and even having undergone surgeries, Yadi’s story illustrates the sometimes elusive nature in obtaining an official lupus diagnoses and underscores the intense toll that lupus can take on an individual and their family.

Though the conversation with Yadi is somewhat brief, she will be joining us again later to better explore her story in more detail – starting from the very beginning of when symptoms first began, what they were and how her journey evolved to the official diagnosis of lupus.
