I hope so but...: This answer may be somewhat controversial. Conventional medicine has very limited success in treating sle, using powerful medicines with potentially serious side effects to try to suppress/slow progression of sle with no idea of actually curing it. Since you have not responded to standard treatment it would be reasonable to try a more holistic/alternative approach. See my comments for more info.
