A member asked:
What is the life expectancy for someone with lupis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Can be normal: In the 1950s, 60% of lupus patients died within five years. Now, more than 90% survive beyond five years. Many lupus patients have non-life threatening disease. Kidney or brain involvement portends a worse prognosis.
