Lupus is an autoimmune systemic disorder, a condition in which the body is unable to distinguish foreign cells from its own cells. This leads to the creation of antibodies to cells in your own body called autoantibodies.

Fibromyalgia has a genetic link and this chronic disorder is caused by stress, anxiety, emotional trauma, etc. The exact cause is still unknown.

Lupus can be difficult to diagnose because the signs and symptoms of this disease often mimic those of other conditions, which is why it is called the " big imitator ". The most distinctive sign of lupus is facial irritation that appears to have butterfly wings on both cheeks. This happens in many cases of lupus, but not at all.

Some people are born with a tendency to develop this condition which can be triggered by infections, certain medications, or even sunlight. Although there is no cure for lupus, some medications can help control symptoms.

Any autoimmune disease is a sign of general intoxication. This is the body's response to all the harmful factors we are exposed to on a daily basis. There are several very effective natural remedies for curing Lupus.

No case of lupus is like the other. Symptoms can develop suddenly or develop over time, can be mild or severe, temporary, or permanent.

Systemic lupus erythematosus is a disease of an autoimmune nature, triggered by overactivity of the immune system of unknown cause, which begins to attack healthy tissue in the body. Thus, the inflammatory process is triggered in several areas of the body, and the unpleasant symptoms such as joint pain, fatigue and not only occur.

There is no cure yet for lupus disease, with treatments on the market aimed at improving symptoms and maintaining periods of remission. Systemic lupus erythematosus manifests itself episodically, through episodes of disease activity and episodes of remission, in which symptoms disappear completely or are significantly improved.
