Image of women working with lupusShortly after being diagnosed with lupus, I had to give up a Nursing career I had worked so hard for. I was lucky though because I loved to write, and at the time, it was the only thing I was able to do. I could work from home or the hospital and no one had to know I was sick. My love for writing eventually turned into a journalism career. For other men and women with lupus, their career may change or evolve depending on their disease activity level.

For Lupus Awareness Month, I partnered with Healthgrades.com to do an incredibles series on Employment and Lupus.

    Also, software developer. There’s some amazing free training out there, like Udacity.com, which can teach you to code with no prior knowledge. You can make a lot of money working from home on your own schedule. I think a lot of people are scared of a career in coding because they think they need a degree in computer science, but I know a lot of awesome self-taught coders who do really well.

    I am a caseworker and having so much trouble. I love my job but it’s very difficult for my health. It really takes a toll, bu the end of the week I am exhausted.
