I too have had run ins with lupus-I recently have had some problems, but no rash. My ANA came back positive. Lupus is a weird one, it is hard to diagnose sometimes because of the varied symptoms. My doctors still don't know exactly what I have but say I do have Sjorgens. I get allot of pain in my joints, legs and arms. I have started walking everyday-and since then I have not had to take any pain mediation. I actually feel 100% better.
