If you have lupus and it attacked kidneys can?

lupus attack other organs in the future

Lupus is an autoimmune multisystematic disease.This means that it can attack many organs in the body.It can affect the skin,most of the body's joints,the heart and the lungs,the liver,the kidneys,the blood and the bone marrow and also the central nervous system.

Of course this doesn't mean that a patient with lupus will develop all these problems.Many people only have arthritis and joint pain combined with a light-sensitive rash.Some others develop nephritis(kidney inflammation) which can be very severe.

With modern drugs recession can be achieved,but follow-up must be thorough because lupus can come back unexpectedly.
