You are more susceptible to any virus now...wash your hands frequently, carry sanitizes, and stay away from anyone who may be sick. You should call your doctor and let them know you are coughing and my have a cold. You may not be able to fight it without extra medication. Take Care,.

Before I medically retired from my job, I would get chest colds with cough. Since I no longer work, it is rare now to get colds. I am not saying stop working, but make sure of those that are sick around you. Was hands often and make sure it is your hr file that your lupus causes these colds. Most importantly talk to all your doctors about it.

I found I have a small mass on minds. Said OK but that's why I had cough. Thank God I don't smoke but they said not to worry keep follow up on it.

Have your lungs been checked lately?

I got a cat scan and they seen it plus my levels was high they thought had blood clot but it was a small nodule meaning small mass
