Yes, gastrointestinal symptoms like nausea and vomiting can definitely show up during a lupus flare. Many MyLupusTeam members have reported stomach-related issues as part of their flare experience, so you're definitely not alone in this.
Lupus flares can bring a whole mix of symptoms, including:
- Joint and muscle pain
- Rashes
- Fever
- Fatigue
- Headaches
- Stomachaches (which can include nausea and vomiting)
It's worth noting that some lupus medications can also contribute to nausea and stomach upset, so it can sometimes be tricky to tell whether it's the flare or the treatment causing the issue. If the vomiting is frequent or severe, it's a good idea to reach out to a healthcare provider. They can help figure out whether it's related to lupus activity, a medication side effect, or something else that needs attention. Keeping a symptom journal to track when it happens can also help spot patterns to share with your doctor.
