Yes, but I don't hear things....is smell things that aren't there and if really bad see stupid stuff that I know logically that aren't there. I get that way when I am in a flare and/or my INR is low. :( Have they diagnosed you with CNS Lupus. Do they have you on Plaquenil?? I have both Lupus and APS.
Central nervous system: In some patients, lupus affects the brain or central nervous system. This can cause headaches, dizziness, memory disturbances, vision problems, seizures, stroke, or changes in behavior.
Get some rest and feel better soon. You may also want to give your rheumatologist a call on Monday.

Fatigue is the most common and bothersome complaint. It is also often the only symptom that remains after treatment of acute flares. A flare in lupus is an acute increase in symptoms.
Fever during lupus flares is usually low-grade, rarely exceeding 102°F. A temperature greater than this should stimulate a search for an infection as the source of the fever. However, any fever in lupus should be considered an infection until proven otherwise.
Muscle pain (myalgia) and joint pain (arthralgia) without or with joint swelling (arthritis) are very common with the new onset of lupus and with subsequent flares.
Although lupus is a multisystem disease, certain organs are affected more commonly than others:

Try drinking more water and squeeze half a lemon into large glass each time with it. Drink two litres a day like this. Also have a look at this product at mykingsway.com. Coral Calcium original patent and the coralite drops. For joint swelling eat more hot food, and dont drink coffee, it enhances swelling in some cases.

Go see a doctor. I had the SAME exact symptoms as you. My feet and hands inflamed, I heard people talking, I was ALWAYS tired and dizzy when I woke up. BUT, the blood test showed nothing and I actually feel great now.
Yes...hallucinations are associated with lupus!

Read up on it. The internet is full of resources.

It appears lupus may cause brain damage. It may be disfunction, temporary or full damage of neurons. So sooner you apply to doctor better.
