Im tired ver easily.. my SLE. Lupus has been in remission for 25years . Is this a flare up. Yes i have came across several rashes [/INST] Hi, Dark and cloudy urine is indicative for urinary tract infections. I suggest running a urinalysis and abdominal ultrasound for further evaluation. I also suggest getting evaluated by an ENT specialist to determine whether the swelling behind your left ear is an infected lymph-node due to ear infection or other underlying problems. Until the results of tests are in, I strongly suggest to: - Chat Doctor. Rashes you are having could be related to SHE relapse for which should further evaluated with rheumatologist. Wish fast recovery! </s>
