Lupus headaches: People who have systemic lupus can develop headaches that can mimic migraines but dont respond to migraine meds. Consult your doctor. You may have to go on steroids to relieve your headaches.

Dry eye?: Also, with lupus, you are at risk for severe dry eyes that can potentially lead to all your symptoms. You can do an easy test. Try otc preservative-free artificial tears, 1 drop every hour and see if your symptoms improve at all. Either way, because your risk for dry eyes is so great, you should probably see an eye md as well.
