Does anyone get itching with lupus?



hi

ive had bright red splotches around my eyes that started with a scab that fell off and scabbed again and then all around my eyes red splotches that itch

The DRs for a year have no clue what this is as no ointment has worked thusfar.

Finally a specialist is in the process of taking an ANA sample from me ill get the test results back next week

so

1. Does lupus itch?

and

2. Do you have to be in the middle of a flare up for the ANA to come back positive?

Thanks !!

i don't know about the ANA results, but i do know that lupus can attack the skin in many ways.....including itching.
my neighbour suffers with lupus and yes it does itch she has hundreds of scars from scratching but i am afraid i dont know about ANA!
