A member asked:
I have lupus- and when i was first diagnosed my upper back felt extremely inflamed, 3 months later feels like this again & headache- is this a flare?

Not really!: Back pain is not a typical feature of sle. You may have another disease with chemical markers for sle, or another problem causing your back discomfort/pain. See your rheumatologist!
