I am currently only taking mycophenolate because the last and first flare caused me to go into kidney failure. Unfortunately, I don't have a regular GP because I can't find one taking new patients. Stuck with local walk in but doctors don't know how to help. Any suggestions from someone out there who has had similar problems and what did you take for it? I have had to stop exercise because I also get very bad headaches. I also think this was triggered by a recent sinus cold I currently have but am still working just to get my mind off how I feel. Your help is appreciated

You really need a rheumatologist to be following you care and treatment. Lupus can affect your internal organs over time and without proper testing and follow through the damage could be worse. With the symptoms you are having I would not ignore. Chest pain and dizziness could indicate a problem with your heart. Please seek medical attention asap.
