Patient's question:
Daughter previously had a period of time when her face was always very red, but she didn't have a fever, and the blush didn't fade. Later, she started having high fever. Every day, around the same time, she would start to feel feverish. Worried, I took her to the hospital for a comprehensive and thorough examination. How long can someone live with lupus?Doctor's answer:
Systemic lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disease that can affect multiple organs and is more common in women. With the improvement in diagnostic methods and treatment levels for this disease, the vast majority of systemic lupus erythematosus patients can be effectively controlled. Currently, the main cause of death for this disease is severe damage to multiple organs and severe infections during acute relapse periods. The 10-year survival rate can reach over 90%.
