While you're doing all this, get tested for celiac disease. A disproportionate number of people with lupus test positive for celiac disease. It causes menstrual problems and miscarriages too. It can also present in strange ways like abnormal heart rhythms. It's a common disease and a simple cure (gluten free diet), that's why I think it's worth getting tested. I had menstrual problems, trouble conceiving and heart palpitations (along with a mile long list of symptoms) prior to getting diagnosed.
