It is best to look online - there is basically 11 generic symptoms that medics refer to when assessing - these include fatigue, muscle/joint pain, rashes (may include a malar or butterfly rash across the nose and cheeks of your face. Many other rashes are included. The list goes on, and most people have some of the symptoms but it is a very individual illness that affects people differently, in the more serious cases organ problems can occur.

i hope this is of some help, but please look on the lupus UK website for a more definitive answer.
