Its not a death sentence, but it will definitely affect her quality of life, and it make shorten her life expectancy!. There are several kinds of Lupus that differ in their severity!. The main threat from lupus is from complications that sometimes develop in the kidneys and blood vessels!. Lupus can't be cured, but most of the symptoms can be managed enough for a person to continue with normal activities, but a few people seem to have problems that get progressively worse, and treatments have little effect!.
