Autoimmune disorder: Lupus is a chronic inflammatory disease that occurs when a person's immune system attacks its own tissues. Inflammation caused by lupus can affect many different body systems. No two cases are exactly alike. Fatigue, fever, joint pain, stiffness, and butterfly-shaped rash on the face are common symptoms. Treatments include anti-inflammatory drugs, corticosteroids, and immune suppressants.
