Good advisor
Not sure cause before being diagnosed I had already been suffering with some health issues, but I think it's emotional stress that triggered the first flare up..family problems, financial problems....

Some environmental factors can set off the condition or trigger a flare-up. Among the common triggers there are:
- ultraviolet rays from the sun;
- emotional stress;
- physical stress (injury, surgery, pregnancy);
- an infection, etc.
Are you aware of what has set off lupus in your case?
