A member asked:
If you were home sick with lupus, arthritis, asthma what are some ways to pass time?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mental and physical: Mental and physical engagement. Do not "rot." keep your mind and body engaged in some stimulating activity, albeit mild. Watch less tv. Do not eat, for lack of things to do. Read, write, walk, use hand weights, engage in conversation. And, as important, be optimistic!
