Hi you guys!

Just read yalls talking and this really probably does not belong, but...

Could you tell me, does Lupus have rashes? What kind and where and for how long???? What other symptoms does Lupus have? My sister in law said that it sounded to her like I had lupus in addition to my RA???? But, my Rheumy dr. has not said a thing about it.

I do itch a lot right now, but I just had a hysterectomy 3 weeks ago and possible that has something to do with it???

Thanks for any answers, or tell me where to look for the answers.

Take care.

Lupus can have different kinds of rashes depending on they type of lupus you have. I have both RA and lupus. My rheum calls it rhupus, lol. If you will go to the lupus forum, there is lots of information there that may help you.

Hi, Teach,

Thanks for the info. I know about the Lupus board a little. I just need to delve into it better.

Plus I do go to my Rheumatologist in a few weeks. About the middle of August. I will ask lots of questions and a few back tests and blood and hand exrays too.

I think that I will try to take some pics of my rashes, but they do not always tun ok.

Take care and I will report back, when I get a better diagnoses and such.
