I haven't been able to work since last year with having poor mobility quite a lot and always being tired as soon as I sit down I want to go to sleep.

I get the shakes a lot is this common with Lupus I don't know a lot about it.

You can have any autoimmune condition with any other and sometimes more than that. I've got 5 autoimmune conditions all living very unhappily together!

I don't know much about Lupus or SLE, there is a charity - Lupus UK - which I'm sure will carry lots of info and help. Most autoimmune conditions are treated with much the same meds, so I don't think you need have any concerns about that.

Happy reading!
