Symptoms of lupus can be so subtle that a person would not suspect the disease. For example, lupus patients are likely to catch colds more frequently and have a much harder time getting well. Lupus patients often experience fatigue, but may simply think they did too much. Since there is no definitive test for lupus, it is hard to say when onset occurs. Additionally, lupus is a remitting/flaring disease meaning it has periods of relative calm and periods of activity The majority of cases are mild to moderate, although lupus can be life threatening. In a mild case of lupus, the patient might not even be bothered enough by the symptoms to bring them to the attention of a doctor.
