Probably SLE: The most likely cause with your history is that it is arthritis due to i our sle. Other possibilities include carpal tunnel syndrome, cervical disk disease, and other types of arthritis or tendon injuries. I would recommend you speak with your rheumatologist about this at your next visit.
