[madhead]

Hi, can anybody tell me if you can get headaches , fatigue and joint problems with SCLE.

[Razoo]

I Madhead, do you mean with Lupas? I get headaches feel tired and constant joint pain. If you don't mean Lipas, what do you mean?

[madhead in reply to Razoo]

yes its subacute cutanious lupus which is supposed to only affect the skin, but i have noticed my fingers feel stiff lately and i do get a few headaches.

Hi Madhead is it Sub cutaneous Lupus? Then yes I had all of these but my diagnosis is now SLE.

[madhead in reply to MargaretGail]

Thanks Margaret, i did ask my consultant if i could get fatigue and he just dismissed it. my fingers also feel stiff now and then.

i do feel for you with being diagnosed with SLE as this is worse.

P.S i forgot to say it is subacute cutaneous lupus

[cm1963]

For years my diagnosis was the first one, 10 years to be exact. Only they called it Discoid lupus. Then they said oops, it is SLE. It wasn't that it had morphed. The physicians diagnose what is most prominent. Initially the first was, and now the SLE is fairly obvious to an INFORMED rheumatologist.

Yes i am able to work not much of a problem, fatigue i really don;t have just feel very tired sometimes but can still manage. my hands have been quite bad today stiff and wrists hurting. headaches i just try to go with it and not let it affect my work but when it turns in to a migraine i am out of action.

i hope that i don't get Fatigue as i feel for you i can only imagine that its such an emotional trauma.

best wishes to you.
