I Have SLE (Systematic Lupus Erathmathosys) 3 years ago I took antibiotics for a bladder infection but also started using cannabis for lupus at the same time, I've been struggeling with this dermatitis eversince. What can I do to cure or atleast releave the symptoms of the dermatitus? Could it be from the cannabis (I have stopped the cannabis for 2 weeks now with no major difference)! Please help

Sounds very nasty.Have you tried any form of UV light treatment? I have been told it is very good for lupus nd skin infections As to whether cannabis may have contributed to your condition I have no idea,but it is a good thing you have given it up...I would have thought that your medical advisors would be the best people to determine the most effective treatment for you.
Reply:I think it is due to your lupus and not the cannabis. UV light treatment is probably a bad idea as UV can make SLE symptoms worse (particularly the skin rashes). I'd suggest seeing your doctor/SLE specialist and asking for a referal to dermatologist for proper treatment.
