SLE (Systemic Lupus Erythematosus) Panel Test: Symptoms, Diagnosis and Cost in India
Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease in which the body’s immune system attacks its own tissues and organs. It can affect any part of the body, including the skin, joints, kidneys, brain, and other organs. This chronic disease can cause a range of symptoms, from mild to severe, and can be difficult to diagnose. In this blog, we will discuss the symptoms, diagnosis, and cost of the SLE panel test in India.
Symptoms of SLE
The symptoms of SLE can vary widely from person to person. Some of the common symptoms include:
- Joint pain and stiffness
- Fatigue and weakness
- Fever and chills
- Skin rashes, especially on the face and neck
- Photosensitivity (sensitivity to sunlight)
- Mouth sores
- Hair loss
- Chest pain and shortness of breath
- Swelling in the legs and feet
- Raynaud’s phenomenon (fingers turning white or blue in response to cold or stress)
It is important to note that not all people with SLE will experience all of these symptoms, and some may have additional symptoms not listed here.
Diagnosis of SLE
Diagnosing SLE can be challenging, as the symptoms can be similar to those of other conditions. Your doctor will likely start with a physical exam and medical history. They may also order blood tests, such as:
- Antinuclear antibody (ANA) test: This test looks for antibodies that attack the nucleus of cells. Most people with SLE have a positive ANA test.
- Complete blood count (CBC): This test measures the number of red and white blood cells in your blood, as well as the amount of hemoglobin and platelets.
- Urinalysis: This test looks for signs of kidney damage, which can be a complication of SLE.
- SLE panel test: This test measures levels of various antibodies in the blood that are associated with SLE.
If these tests suggest SLE, your doctor may order additional tests, such as a skin biopsy or a kidney biopsy, to confirm the diagnosis.

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease in which tissues undergo damage by tissue binding autoantibodies and immune complexes. These autoantibodies are present for a few years before the clinical symptoms appear, finally leading to inflammation and irreversible organ damage.
