All I can say to help is a) phone your Lupus clinic to see if they can offer sdvice and b) get an appointment at your dentist asap, they will probably refer you on straight away. Good Luck.

Try using an antiseptic mouthwash hun. Thats all dentist told me to use. But if you can try and get a check up from dentist if you can hun to get it looked at then they can advise better. I have the same problem. Comes and goes. Skin just peels off the inside of my mouth. Blisters popping up. The inside of my bottom lip is all red and veiny, has been like that for some time now and it feels all bumpy when I run my tongue over it. Ive just learnt to live with it I guess. Try the mouthwash though see if that helps hun xxx
