Riding during lupus flare
Does anyone out there have experience with riding during a lupus flare up? (maybe similar to arthritis?) So far I'm just having joint pain primarily at night, and I feel pretty good during the day when I would ride. Will riding more make things worse or make the damage permanent? Also my first flare affected my kidneys. I was wondering if riding will add more stress and cause it to move back to my kidneys? I know I will have to make sure I'm not getting dehydrated, but anything else? I only plan on doing zone 2 riding for now so nothing extreme. Also I just moved and haven't established care with a rheumatologist yet to get answers, and my primary doc here doesn't seem to care.

A web forum is not a substitute for a doctor.
Call your previous rheumatologist. Should be a pretty quick yes or no answer.
