Does SLE damage the nervous system?

Systemic lupus erythematosus may involve the nervous system and cause some degree of damage, which should be actively treated.
SLE is an autoimmune connective tissue disease that occurs mostly in women of reproductive age and involves multiple organs. It can lead to multi-system damage, such as skin, kidney, cardiovascular, etc. Acute or end-stage SLE patients may also have neurological manifestations.
When neurological damage occurs in SLE, in mild cases, there are migraine, personality change, memory loss or mild cognitive impairment; in severe cases, it can be manifested as cerebrovascular accident, coma or epileptic status, etc., which has a great impact on the prognosis of the disease and the quality of life of the patients, so it is necessary to attach great importance to the neurological damage in SLE patients.
When SLE patients have related symptoms, they should go to the rheumatology and immunology department of the hospital as soon as possible and receive standardized treatment under the guidance of doctors.
