Hi Migskian,

Welcome to the LUPUS UK HealthUnlocked community, we offer a free information pack which you can download or request at lupusuk.org.uk/request-info...

We published a booklet on lupus and the kidneys which you can read at lupusuk.org.uk/wp-content/u...

Have you seen a dietician for your weight loss? According to the NHS website, a dietician can recommend safe ways for a person to gain healthy weight once they have identified the causes of a person's weight loss.

Skin involvement affects around 60% to 70% of people with lupus. Skin rashes can occur due to high disease activity within the body or due to triggers such as UV light. We published a booklet on lupus and the skin which I hope you will find helpful - lupusuk.org.uk/wp-content/u...

Please let us know how you get on, wishing you all the best.
