💜 Arthritis Awareness Month | A Patient Story of Strength & Resilience

Shontia Matlock was just 19 years old when she was diagnosed with lupus.

What makes her story especially powerful is that lupus had already affected multiple generations of her family.

“Everybody in my family has it: my mom, grandmother, uncles, cousins,” she shared. “I knew I could have it. I just didn't know if it would skip me, and it didn't.”

Her journey is a reminder that autoimmune diseases like lupus and rheumatoid arthritis can affect anyone - and that living with these conditions often requires strength, persistence, and ongoing support. 💙

Key takeaways from her story:

🩺 Advocating for your health matters
🤝 Support systems can make a meaningful difference
💊 Treatment journeys may involve trial and error
✨ Staying informed about new therapies can help improve quality of life

💜 Lupus can affect more than the joints and immune system — it can also impact the skin.

According to Everyday Health, skin symptoms are among the most common signs of lupus and may appear as:

☀️ Sensitivity to sunlight
🌸 Facial rashes or discoloration
🖐️ Raised or scaly skin patches
🩹 Sores or changes in skin appearance

Because lupus symptoms can vary from person to person, recognizing early signs and seeking proper care is important.

Our providers work closely with patients to help diagnose, manage, and treat complex autoimmune conditions like lupus. 💙

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Patient Review | Low Country Rheumatology

“I’ve been sick for four years and have seen just about every doctor imaginable — including two different rheumatologists — with no real answers. It wasn’t until I met Dr. Collins at Low Country Rheumatology that everything finally changed.

Within one month of working with him, I feel alive again for the first time in years. He actually listened, cared, and took his time to figure out what was truly wrong instead of brushing off my symptoms. Because of him, I finally have a diagnosis and a treatment plan that works.

I can’t thank Dr. Collins enough for giving me my life back.” 💙

At Low Country Rheumatology, we believe every patient deserves to feel heard, supported, and confident in their care journey. Stories like this remind us why compassionate, personalized care matters. 🩺✨

May is Arthritis Awareness Month - and we're kicking it off with a reminder that arthritis isn't just an "old age" problem.

More than 53 million U.S. adults live with arthritis, and it can affect anyone, at any age. From osteoarthritis to rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, gout, and beyond - these conditions touch every generation, every profession, every walk of life.

This month, we'll be sharing tips, facts, and resources to help you understand arthritis, manage symptoms, and live well. Because the right care can change everything.

If you're experiencing joint pain, stiffness, or fatigue that won't go away - don't wait. Talk to a rheumatologist. We're here to help.
