Q: Diarrhea with Lupus
asked by: vlfavella on October 7th, 2009

My 7 year was diagnosed with SLE fourteen months ago. She has done well, with no flare ups for the last seven months. She is on Prednisone for flares only. She has had diarrhea for the last week, each time that she eats. I was thinking she had some sort of stomach bug and was not too concerned, but she gets abdominal pain and uncontrollable diarrhea. Does this sound like it could be related to the disease, or most likely a virus of some sort?

As there are a lot of stomach viruses going around right now, you should take her to the doctor to get it checked out. It may be the disease, but you need to get a definite answer for treatment so she can feel better. Nobody over the Internet will be able to tell you for sure which is causing her stomach problems.
