I think life expectancy can be a normal life span if lupus patients stick to their treatment plans. Complications from lupus include heart attack, stroke, organ failure and uncontrolled infection. Ongoing scientific progress with medications continue to enhance lupus patients quality of life & longevity.

Life expectancy depends on organ involvement. Differs for everyone.

There is no longer a number.Through advancements of technology and medicine, many illnesses that are related to lupus can be maintained or prevented therefore giving lupus patients a longer life span.

The hope of life of people who suffer from lupus is growing a lot in the last few years. With the new treatments that are coming out, it is said that 90% of lupus patients have a normal life expectancy. In the 10% in which lupus is more aggressive and attacks vital organs, the life expectancy may be lower, but with the new treatments for lupus are being controlled much better the outbreaks and even these patients who have a lupus aggressive have a much better prognosis and better life expectancy than a few years ago.

You must be attentive to the signals that gives the body and act as fast as possible flare-ups of lupus to slow down as soon as possible outbreaks and relapses.

The life expectancy is usually between 5 to 10 years less, it depends on each case.
The sun is our enemy number #1. Being ill-informed and do not take the medication is another decisive factor in our evolution.

The latest advance that I am aware of is a treatment based on metformin in combination with other drugs, is still experimental. Came out after the belimumab and is expected to soon reach Mexico.

It depends on each case and also of on what area of the world touched you born , in the countries of "developed" I would imagine that 70 years ago, but I'm going to die 100.
In the countries more poor if you don't have money for health care maximum of 40 years

The life expectancy can be as normal as a person either, as long as you have the proper care.

Exposure to the sun put our health at risk, the overindulging in food, cigarette, alcohol

There is still no treatment specific, or discovery of cause of Lupus, much less the cure, but the advances in medicine in the understanding of the disease mechanisms for the encouragement of the study and the development of new drugs. Have already proven that some care is fundamental to the control of the disease, how to avoid exposure to the sun, use sun protection, balanced diet, physical activity, and avoid cigarettes, alcohol and any other drug, helps a lot the work of the disease.

The life expectancy of a person with Lupus I believe that is the same as the normal population, a person with Lupus quality of life could live much more time than a sane person who leads a life without a lot of care with food, cigarettes, drinks, sedentary lifestyle...
