I've had lupus for twelve years.  We can commiserate together, if you'd 
like.  I also used to be a med tech!  If a doctor tried to violate you, 
nail him.  FInd a good internist to manage and coordinate your care.  You 
are going to end up having several doctors throughout all time.  There is 
an arthritis support newsgroup which may be helpful as well.
