Lupus Canada
Welcome to Lupus Canada’s official account on Youtube. The purpose of this account is to further Lupus Canada’s vision and mission, support learning, and enhance communication with patients, parents/guardians, volunteers, and community members.
Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by inflammation in one or more parts of the body. A complex disease, it can target any tissue or organ of the body including skin, muscles, joints, blood, lungs, heart, kidneys and the brain. Men, women and children can be diagnosed with lupus but between the ages of 15 and 45, nine times more women than men are diagnosed.
Lupus is under-funded and under-recognized, therefore making it life-altering and life-threatening. While lupus is a serious condition, in most cases it can be treated and controlled. Diagnosis and treatment are improving, allowing people to live increasingly active and productive lives.
