Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

The immune system normally fights off dangerous bacteria and infections to keep the body healthy. An autoimmune disease occurs when the immune system attacks the body because it confuses it with something foreign. There are many autoimmune diseases, including systemic LE (SLE).

The term lupus has been wont to identify a variety of immune diseases that have similar clinical presentations and laboratory characteristics, but LED is that the commonest sort of lupus. People often refer to the LED when they talk about lupus.

LED is a chronic disease that can have worsening phases of symptoms that alternate with periods of mild symptoms. Most people with SLE can live a traditional life with treatment.

According to the Lupus Foundation of America, a minimum of 1.5 million Americans live with diagnosed lupus. The foundation estimates that the number of people actually affected is much higher and that many cases go undiagnosed.
