Hi winterbaby07... just looked at your pics.negative tests...let's hope they stay negative!!my tests,3,each 12 viles,15 viles,18 viles came back,positive,negative,positive!!!yes,all over the place!I am now on Plaquenil, off the predisone. Still rashy,sores,real achey joints.I lost 20 lbs so far.stress is your worst enemy,as is mine.I started on 20 mgs,split of predisone. Then tapered slowly off to go on the Plaquenil. Doc said the predisone is bad for my already existing back,spine problems. That predisone is a weird medicine. It made me a little unpredictable. I am usually calm naturally. It may be it's my diseases though making me a but off.

I have all 3 diseases, too!1 isn't bad enough...here's some more!!I was diagnosed with fibro first, about 10 years ago.

I am always on Lupus UK site,even though I am in America. Stumbled onto it one day.

Hoping for the best for you!there's a zillion auto immune diseases as you know by now.in your corner!Dunk

Hi I'm in USA also PA and it's a battle ... I'm thankful the prednisone took the nose & mouth sores away and I feel a little better so let's see what the plaquenil does for me

Thanks for the support, we all need it!
