Is LUPUS a genetic disorder?


I need to know because i am writing a term project on a genetic disorder. Is LUPUS one or do i need to find another. an if so, can you list some genetic disorders? Thanks :)

Yes Lupus is a genetic disorder, my sister had it fully, and she was always hurting. I am a carrier, I just found out this year. They done a blood study on me for like two months, every week I was going give blood test. I do not have it full pledge like my sister did. You can find some info on it at
Mayo Clinic.com Hope this helps

I don't belive Lupus is but check the link to find out more.

Yes, Lupus is a genetic disorder. However, the research that is available is not a lot. It is very hard to trace throughout the blood line because the lack of research back then!

It is possible to inherit Lupus. Read this article: http://health.yahoo.com/lupus-overview/l...

Here is a full list of genetic diseases: http://dir.yahoo.com/Health/Diseases_and...

I was diagnosed with lupus last year and at present they are still doing research to determine if lupus is in fact a genetic disorder. There is a strong possibility that it is however I do not know of anyone else in my family that has this disease.
