General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi

Unfortunately there is no direct cure or treatment for lupus and treatment mainly includes dealing with each system individually, steroid administration, immunoglobins, etc. So as your girl friend is young and has a long life ahead of her I would strongly recommend taking her to an internal disease specialist and an immunologist at the earliest.

Best wishes
