I’m in the process of getting a diagnosis and my biggest thing right now is a butterfly rash on my face, fatigue, weird joint stiffness and achey flu like symptoms. Curious how to talk to my doctor about lupus possibly being the cause. (Moms a nurse, said it could be lupus, have an appointment on Tuesday)

      Ask your doctor to prescribe betamethasone for the rash on your face

      Definitely sounds like lupus to me. Be sure to ask for an ANA (antinuclear antibodies) test. It can show how your body is reacting and show disease activity! Good luck and let us know how it goes!
