had annual review today

saw a different Dr

he did introduce himself,but I can't recall his name,but I hope I get him again

he has started me on hydroxychlorine

he was running very late and I was worried he might try to make up time and rush me,but he didn't,,he listened to all I had written down

wanted to type more but very tired 😫

Hope u can get his name again! It's very helpful to write things down as we do have memory problems associated with APS! Just don't loose the paper as I always do!!! Lol... I hope u get well real soon! Glad he took the time with you! Rest up! Godspeed

Update on the hydroxychloroquine

Started at one every other day to see if I could tolerate

Had telephone consultation with GP,he seems surprised that I had no ill affects

Actually,even after only a few days the swelling inside my elbows started to go down

Anyway he told me to go up to one a day, and that,s when the bad tummy set in :(
