question: Hello doctor, Last summer, I sat in the sun for a few hours tanning. Nothing to drink and I used two oils on me. My face and chest have been red ever since. After then, I donated my blood and they sent a letter saying about some blood cells. I had my appointment with a rheumatologist and got blood work done and I guess it had come back stating I had lupus. Everything has cleared up on me with the redness except my so called bufferfly rash. What do I do? I am starting to get annoying also. This week I have also started to notice my hair has been thinning and I have a weird bald spot on top of my head which in fact I have not had my hair cut trimmed in over a year or two. So what would you think about that also?  Last year, I had pain in my knuckles in the winter every morning I would wake up but not come back that is the confusing part. I am starting Prednisone tonight to see if that helps and I am on Topamax and Adipex right now those are it.
