I once tested positive for lupus, but it turned out I didn't have it.
Some of the signs are the 'lupus mask' that is when you go out in the sun you get very blochy around your nose and cheeks. Next there is a lot of muscle fatigue.
Sounds more like you have allergies and are very congested.
Check the lupus site mentioned previously.
Good luck regardless.

Hi I am relly sorry to hear that you have lupus ist not a very nice thing to have , my mum nan and auntie have it and I am being tested. You will need lots of sleep all the time you joints swell up. you can get authoritis with it. blotchy itchy skin in the sun. loss of apitie. if you do too much your body will stut down and you will have flare up this is where you could be in bed for days and all your joints swell up really bad. back aches. the list goes on. please try and find some support sites and it will do you good to look this up as having lupus does you good to follow a diet, there are foods your should avoid. Also Lupus is known to be hereditary so maybe you could ask your family if they know of anyone to have it before ? and maybe they can help you.
Good Luck xXx
