Is there a connection between scarlet fever and lupus?

I am presenting symptoms now, but have not been diagnosised. I have had other symptoms at different times that were auto-immune in nature too.

I've been thinking my multiple sclerosis is somehow linked to the scarlet fever I had as a kid.

No connection.
