Lupus or Systemic Lupus Erythematosis or SLEAn example an autoimmune disease (the body attacking itself) which gives rise to inflammation of connective tissue, the binding or glue of our body tissues. When SLE or lupus affects the membranes around joints, the symptoms resemble those of rheumatoid arthritis. When it affects those around lungs, kidneys, heart or virtually any organ or system within the body, it gives rise to inflammation, tissue damage and pain which may be mistaken for a localised condition or disease process. The name lupus refers to the red scaly rash of DLE or discoid lupus Erythematosis which affects the face giving a "wolf" like mask from which lupus derives its name. The causes have ranged from prescription or over the counter drugs, allergies, and toxins, especially metals such as cadmium and arsenic and chemicals such formaldehyde and benzene; to sunlight, sun beds, the contraceptive pill and infective organisms such as viruses in particular.
