Regular medical check-ups are crucial for managing lupus effectively. Lupus can affect various organ systems in your body, so regular monitoring is key to catching and addressing any potential issues early.
During your visits, your doctor will likely perform a physical examination, ask about your symptoms, and may order laboratory tests to assess your condition. These check-ups allow your doctor to monitor the course of your disease and adjust your treatment as necessary.
Moreover, regular check-ups provide an opportunity for you to discuss any concerns or issues you’re experiencing. Remember, you’re an integral part of your healthcare team, and your input is valuable in managing your lupus effectively. (5)
