What Causes Painful Joints When Diagnosed With Lupus?

I am 73 years old female. I have been diagnosed with lupus but in the past few months I have become almost immobile due to painful joints and a very stiff body. It is painful anytime I try to bend or move. My entire body is one complete sore, painful, stiff mess and I have no idea what is going on.

Hi painful arthritis is part of Lupus. It needs same treatment as for Lupus, more intensified. Please see your doctor about this--regards
