Did you know you can use #FMLA leave to take part in a clinical trial, either for your own health condition or that of a family member? This protection helps ensure employees can take the time to participate in clinical trials without risking their jobs.

People with #lupus can experience cognitive symptoms such as having a hard time thinking clearly or remembering things. This is called #brainfog. Brain fog can impact cognitive skills like language, memory, coordination, mood and vision.

Many people living with #lupus struggle to maintain full-time employment. A national statistic estimates only 30% of lupus patients are able to be employed full time. #lupusawareness #lupusawarenessmonth

People living with #lupus are often told they do not look sick since they display no noticeable signs of the illness. While it can be taken as a compliment, it also takes away how hard each person with lupus fights every day. Not all disabilities or illnesses are visible. #lupusawarenessmonth

The majority of those with #lupus identify #fatigue as their primary symptoms. Lupus fatigue is not the same as feeling tired — it's a tired sleep can't fix. #lupusawareness #lupusawarenessmonth

The exact cause of #lupus is unknown, but research shows it’s a combination of genetic, hormonal & environmental factors. People with a predisposition for #autoimmune may develop the disease when they come into contact with something in their environment that triggers an overactive immune system.

#Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease with a wide range of symptoms, which can vary greatly between individuals. #lupusawarenessmonth
