It's estimated that 70-90% of SLE patients will experience central nervous system involvement. Many experiencing mild to moderate cognitive impairments and headaches - both increasing in intensity during times of active disease. The Lupus headache often only responds primarily to corticosteroids (even at moderate doses) and very rarely to pain medications. While a smaller percentage of patients will experience life-threatening cerebritis.
