I haven't been diagnosed officially yet but they are looking into lupus, and I was curious how the sun affects the flare ups. It seems it takes almost no time at all in the sun and I get red blothchy rash looking thing, not burned which doesn't really icth or hurt and goes away after being out of the sun for a while, but when I get the rash from the sun I've noticed alot of my other symptoms get worse? Is that the way it works or is this something else? Thanks for everyones help, I'm just so confused at this point!
