Does lupus reduce lifespan?
I'm scared to ask this question as someone who's diagnosed with SLE and will probably be diagnosed with LN given that my kidney has been leaking proteinurea. So just wanted to know if this means I will have a shortened lifespan than normal and if yes, how much shorter? I'm 21 now and I want to know cases of people who are 50+ now, how their life is at that age and if they feel even closely as healthy as normal people their age. I'm really sorry if this is not an appropriate question to ask.
