No, not necessarily. Only half of those with lupus will develop a butterfly rash. Symptoms of lupus include fever, dry eyes, chest pain, memory loss, and fatique. There are over 30 diseases with butterfly rash as a symptom.

The butterfly rash is not necessarily the first symptom of lupus, although it can be. Any symptom or symptoms of lupus should be brought up to your physician.

Not necessarily. Light sensitivity, tiredness and joint pains can also be early signs. A persistent butterfly rash is, however, one of the most common early signs of lupus.
