Possible: It could be but it may not be from the lupus. We would need to know a lot more about your lupus before we could attribute these symptoms to lupus.

Yes: Sle, through a variety of mechanisms can result in almost any symptoms, although this set would be unusual. Irritable bowel syndrome is unlikely to do this, but if you have inflammatory bowel disease in the form of chrohn's particularly, these symptoms may definitely occur. You should be evaluated for these by your doctor.
