Hi all. First post here I got discoid lupus. symptoms are skin spots in scalp (inactive so they are bald spots), and spots on shoulders and upper back. I didn't find anything specific here for discoid, and mine is not systemic (yet) Anyone here with the same condition?

      It started out at first as just SLE

      Hi! I have skin lupus and am “pre sle” - my blood antigens for systemic lupus are trending up (they were previously negative when I first was diagnosed with discoid skin lupus). I now also have chilblain skin lupus on my feet that I’ve been managing with plaquenil. Plaquenil alone cleared the discoid lupus for me and has kept blood levels controlled
