Lupus patients often develop pleurisy, or inflammation of the lining of the lungs. This causes chest pain upon deep breathing.
Lupus patients may also develop inflammation in the heart which also causes chest pain. There are three types of inflammation of the heart based on which layer is affected: pericarditis, myocarditis, and endocarditis.
All chest pains should be addressed by a doctor immediately.
