If I'm not mistaken, there are three different types of lupus. Skin, joint and organs...
I have the skin and the joint lupus. Can it change into the one that affects your organs?

You are a little bit mistaken - there are 3 kinds:
Discoid is confined to the skin;
System Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) can affect any organ - joints (arthritis like symptoms), kidneys, lungs, heart;
Drug induced - lupus-like symptoms, rarely affects kidneys or nervous system, can disappear when drugs is stopped (or become less severe).
