What Causes Enlarged Spleen And Liver With Lupus?

Hello , I have lupus SLE and I have been sick for the past 2 weeks. I thought it could be the flu because i was extremely nauseous weak and tired but then I started getting pain in my stomach. I went to the er to find out my liver enzymes are at a level of about 400 and my spleen and liver are enlarged now. I wanted to know what could be the possible reason for this? Thank you

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
There are many reasons for liver and spleen enlargement. Iy could be due to leukemia, granulomatous disease, congestive causes or due to some other cause. You should go for blood tests like complete blood count and peripherals smear examination. It will give some idea about cause. If needed go for bone marrow examination. So search yhe cause and start treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic.
