skin lupus?

Has anyone heard of skin lupus before? I know what lupus is, but have never heard of 'skin lupus'. I just had several skin biopsies where they are looking for 'skin lupus'. Its the next thing on the list (of doctor's guesses) to rule out. Does anyone else have this??

Are you talking about...Discoid (or cutaneous) lupus?

I hope all is going well. And you do not have it. I have been tested many years ago. It is time again for all my testing again. I gave up many years ago and just suffered with this and that. Now ready again to start testing for answers. Scarey thing to do for me. I wish you good luck and health.
