Hi MAIDMARIONMARION,
Osteoporosis is often linked to lupus if you have been treated with steroids, as this is a common side-effect. Would you like some more information about lupus? I have a free information pack that I would be happy to send you? Just send me a private message or email me at paul@lupusuk.org.uk with your name and address and I'll pop one in the post.
