This is an informative article on the rashes caused by lupus, but doctors are still so far behind on auto immune diseases that run higher in women than men. I have SLE, RA, sjogren's and fibro and get the rash on my face, neck, shoulders and back. What have they found to help or prevent? Nothing. Sunscreen does not keep me from getting rashes regardless and avoiding the sun altogether is impossible. What have they come up with to help? I have been poked, prodded and scanned to exhaustion and so have alomost all the female members of my family. I do beleive it is genetic, Im living proof that it is and yet the medicines I take do not help. The painkillers do not take away the pain and the doctors have come no further. So knowing we wear the sun screen, avoid the sun and still get rashes and our bodies break down along with our immune systems, what has been invented to help us????
