Lupus is an autoimmune disease where the body's immune system becomes hyperactive and attacks normal, healthy tissue. Generallly speaking, it is not a terminal illness although some people could die from the complication.
Prostate Cancer (PC), on the other side is a high motality rate terminal illness. (I suppose you ladies have no need to worry about it)
Human Genome Sciences turned down the off from GlaxoSmithKline for Benlysta and their stock soared 100% in one day. (Benlyta is the new drug for Lupus)
I have invested 100K in Dendren for its Prostate Cencer drug, Provenge and I have lost my shirt as an investor on this company.
Ooh well, I still have my Prostate and its underlying parts. Thanks God, they haven't fallen off yet.
