End Stage Lupus is a severe and deadly case of Lupus.

End stage lupus nephritis occurs in the first 3 months of dialysis and most often results from infection.

Later on during end stage Lupus, infection and cardiovascular complications can occur which is the most common cause of death in end stage Lupus patients.

Most cases of Lupus do go away on their own but some cases can be more severe.

Lupus can be both mild and severe and some more severe cases of Lupus may require medical treatment and medicine to treat the Lupus.

But if your Lupus is only a mild case of Lupus then it will usually go away but it still a good idea to see your doctor about it.

Symptoms of Lupus can get worse and then get better.

Lupus is an autoimmune disease and not an STD.

Lupus is not contagious and you cannot pass it on or get infected with Lupus from someone who has it.

Lupus is an autoimmune disease but Lupus is not a form of cancer.

However while Lupus is not a form of cancer patients who do have Lupus are at a higher risk of developing some types of cancer.

The most common types of cancer that Lupus patients get after having Lupus are Cervix Cancer and Lymphoma Cancer.

But not all Lupus patients will get those cancers or any type of cancer.

Some Lupus patients just deal with the Lupus for the rest of their lives and never get cancer.

But just be aware that if you do have Lupus then you might get some type of cancer so you just have to be prepared for that.

It's best to get screened for cancer more often if you do have Lupus.
