What is lupus ? 

Lupus is illness that occurs when the immune system attacks healthy tissues and organs. Systemic lupus erythematosus is a long-lasting, known as chronic, illness that can affect many parts of the body. These can include joints, skin, kidneys, blood cells, brain, heart and lungs. Symptoms can come on quickly or slowly. They can get worse for a while, then get better, which is called a flare. 

Is lupus serious ?

Yes, because it’s a serious, chronic autoimmune disease that can significantly impact a person's health and quality of life by causing inflammation and damage to vital organs like the kidneys, heart, and brain. While treatments can help manage symptoms and prevent flares, lupus is a lifelong condition that requires ongoing medical care to prevent severe complications such as organ failure, heart attack, or stroke.
