WordNet Note: The adjective lumpen has one meaning:

Meaning #1: mentally sluggish
Synonym: Unthinking

That's all my dictionary has to say about the word that could be remotely related to medicine. According to them it is an adjective so it would modify a noun and not indicate any specific disease or condition (I think). I would interpret their definition to something similar to retardation but that is only a guess on my part.

There are other words that sound similar but without knowing the medication and complete set of symptoms I doubt anyone can do much better than that.

Give your friend my best and stick with her, what ever it is, just having a friend can help.
... what is lumpen? Lumpen is an entity that produces a magazine and a number of other art/activism media/culture projects. We have been kicking the can around for over 15 years..
Do you know what kind of medication she is on? I'm thinking maybe she misunderstood. Could she possibly have ?lupus?
