question: My niece who just moved here to Arizona has lupus.  Now they think she may have contracted valley fever.  She didn't go to a doctor with the cough right away.  By the time she did go she was in pain all over and had large nodules on her legs.  What type of specialist should she be seeing?  Also, should she be resting?  She went to work today, even though she was in pain.  Finally, would a diet free of food additives help?  I know I get achy all over if I eat a lot of processsed food.  I don't have lupus, but I do have arthritis, and I think this might help her as well.
