Conflicting diagnosis concerning lupus

My aunt had something similar happen to her. She was diagnosed with and treated for lupus for many years at a large, well respected teaching hospital. At some point over the last several years she was told by the same facility (different doctors) that she did not have it. She has serious kidney issues now. Are you okay except for muscle pain?

I think, my opinion, not based on fact. We take so much medication to reduce the inflammation that blood work will be affected if meds are working. If in a flare blood work will match diagnosis.
I was diagnosed for years with endometriosis and Chrons...both now known as autoimmune.
I had Roseacha and had laser work to remove...now I think that was Lupus mask.
Older diagnosis of Lupus and RA...Lupus Anticoagulation after a stroke in my eye. Cysts on Endocrine system monitored yearly.
I rarely state these to anyone, sounds like hypochondriac but all are confirmed by Blood work. SKIN RASHES MAKE ME CRY.
BE YOUR OWN ADVOCATE!
