Help!!

I have had problems with my face on 3 separate occasions. I woke up with my face swollen like I had an allergic reaction. My fave was bright red and angry looking. I had to have a steroid injection to help it. It cleared up after a week. I am currently experiencing it again. My face is so red it looks like I have burnt it. The doctor thinks it’s lupus realated but not 100% sure. I am so fed up with it. I look horrendous. Has anyone had this happen?

Hello Diglove, I am sorry to read this and wish you a quick recovery. My daughter had the same, we thought it was the face wash she used. And i gave her allergy tablets. It got better 4-5 days. I also used black castir oil. We think its related to her lupus. Both of us are lupus sufferers. Hope this info helps. Love, xxxx
