Systemic Lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a multiorgan autoimmune disease that affects 20-150 per 100,000 women. It is a mutagenic disease which causes formation of autoantibodies immune complexes that leads to inflammation in different organs leading to organ damage. We present a case of a young female who was newly diagnosed to have SLE. She presented with an elevated ANA, low C3 and elevated Anti-DS DNA. She first manifested with epistaxis and subsequently experienced the various complications of SLE such as infection, thrombosis, bleeding, ascites, etc. The initial presentation of normochromic, normocytic anemia and thrombocytopenia together with further work-ups supported another concomitant autoimmune disease, namely Evan’s syndrome. Evan’s syndrome is a rare manifestation of SLE, and is observed in only 2.73% of the population. In addition, the patient manifested with sudden onset of right-sided body weakness with Cranial CT scan findings of areas of focal infarction in the frontal lobe with concomitant acute intracranial hemorrhages. The evidence of both thrombosis and hemorrhage provided conflicting management strategies for this patient. The use of hydroxychloroquine, which is the cornerstone of lupus therapy, provided beneficial antithrombotic effects. A multidisciplinary approach to management and prudent choice of medications were vital in the success of treatment on such a complicated case.
