Lupus
Lupus is a disease in which the immune system becomes overactive. Lupus may cause fatigue, rashes, joint pains and depression and sometimes has life-threatening effects on the kidneys or brain. HCA is privileged to have Professor Graham Hughes in our hospital network. Professor Hughes has established a worldwide reputation in lupus, notably with his description of thrombosis and miscarriage, now known internationally as Hughes Syndrome. He has trained a generation of lupus specialists who now practice all over the world.
