Any herb that stimulates the immune system is contraindicated, that is it should not be used, if the person has lupus. Echinacea is one to be avoided. Herbs that claim to be immune boosters should also be avoided. The treatment goal in lupus is to suppress the immune system not to stimulate it.
People with lupus should always ask their rheumatologists before taking any herbs, vitamins or alternative treatments. Some herbs that "boost" the immune system, like echinacea, make lupus worse. Lupus patients take immunosuppressive drugs to weaken the immune system and stop it from attacking the healthy self. Some of these are very potent chemotherapies and biologics that can interact in dangerous ways with herbs, some vitamins, and alternative therapies.
Depends on the problem. and how you plan to use the herbs
No; lupus and stuttering are not related. You can find good information on stuttering on the web site for The Stuttering Foundation. You can find information on lupus from the National Arthritis Foundation.
If someone has lupus nephritis, that person should discuss any supplement, vitamins, herbs, or "alternative" therapies with the rheumatologist and nephrologist. Lupus nephritis can be fatal and is nothing to be fooled around with.

Each persons' lupus is different. Whether lupus gets better or worse is based on some controlable factors and some uncontrollable factors. If a lupus patient follows their specific treatment plan and supplements that with exerise, a healthy diet, and stress reduction there is a good chance that the lupus will go into remission. That said, lupus can be unpredictable despite our best efforts.
