I was wondering what sorts of examinations will be done when Systemic lupus erythomatosus is suspected (Please be specific if you can)
will the doctor do test especifically for that and/or do a general check up of the endocrine system?

I wish there was such a thing as a thyroidologist. I need one. Endocrinologists think too much about diabetes and neglect their education in all of the other areas of the endocrine system, especially the thyroid, since thyroid diseases are women's diseases.

Thyroidologist? Do you mean an Endocrinologist....
They'll draw some blood for tests. Maybe 'feel' your thyroid gland at the front base of your neck.
You'll find a whole lot of information at the links here below:
