Disorder in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus
Lupus headache is a proposed, specific headache disorder in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).[1][2]
Research shows that headache is a symptom commonly described by SLE patients —57% in one meta-analysis, ranging in different studies from 33% to 78%;[3] of which migraine 31.7% and tension-type headache 23.5%. The existence of a special lupus headache is contested, although few high-quality studies are available to form definitive conclusions.[4][5]
