Other options: Most sle (lupus) can be controlled with the newer agents. So do consult a rheumatologist to go over these new options. Since uncontrolled sle can affect multiple organs , get a 2nd opinion from another rheumatologist if needed. Consider looking into the rheumatology department at a medical school closest to your home.
