Education
If you have been diagnosed with lupus, it could be helpful to tell your school, college, or university about your condition. It is possible to receive accommodations if you need them, such as extra time in exams. Without them knowing, it can be hard for them to help you. We have created some resources below which you may find useful.
For additional support check out RAilSE, a charity improving school life and education for young people with invisible illnesses.
