Have lupus,exercise, &stay fit. people expect me to cram my schedule with plans on weekend & i need rest as needed. how can i explain when i look fine?

Just say no.: Just tell them you already have plans with no explanation needed. Your plan may just be resting and be left alone. You don't owe anyone an explanation.
