"It was strange that organ damage is not something that was talked about [with my doctors], not something I was warned about, not something that was discussed at all until I was experiencing it, until I actually had a kidney biopsy, and I was diagnosed with nephritis class 4." GSK

What's on YOUR #lupusbingo card today?

#Lupus and LupusNephritis (LN) can be diagnosed TOGETHER for as many as 30% of lupus patients. As many as 60% of Lupus #SLE patients will see kidney impact.

YOU deserve better!

Ask your provider for treatments leading to #lupusremission as outlined by the American College of Rheumatology. #shareddecisionmaking.

Lupus symptoms vary from patient to patient, making #lupus hard to diagnose and hard to treat.
If YOU have lupus, ask your #rheumatologist about treatments to help you reach #remission.
