As : As I am sure you know lupus can affect the kidneys causing lupus nephritis (inflammation of the kidneys). If you are having any type of pain or discomfort you should see your doctor right away for urine studies, blood tests, and possibly an ultrasound of your kidneys. Also, you may be dealing with a simple urinary tract infection or kidney infection. Please see your doctor right away. Best of luck and happy new year.
