Hi, I too have lupus and have had Stevens–Johnson Syndrome for over 4 years.
I wrote a summary about the SJS symptoms and included a picture:

@swalex Your research is phenomenal! Such interesting reading. I remember caring for a woman who developed SJS due to administration of penicillin to which she was allergic. The daughter had neglected to tell the ER staff. When she was admitted to our unit I prepared a
Third dose which I never gave. I had been doing the admission H+P when the daughter said she was allergic to Pen, but she had forgotten to tell the ER. I called the MD and got stat orders
The next day she was transferred to a burn unit in the city where she died. It has stayed with me for 30+ years.
