Was it the vaccine itself that caused the Lupus, or did she have a predisposition to Lupus that was set off by her immune system from getting a vaccine?

Also, the article makes it sound as if Lupus and cerebral vasculitis are 2 separate entities. Her vasculitis is probably directly related to the Lupus process.

I went through much the same as this girl did, although my “Lupus” turned out to be an overlap with systemic sclerosis (internal scleroderma)
These auto imune diseases are extremely hard to diagnose because the symtoms vary so widely and mimic other disease symptoms.

But, it’s becoming more and more evident that developing these kind of auto immune diseases is preceded by some kind of trauma, in my case it was surgery on my leg, but it could easily be anything that causes stress to the imune system.
