Hi, sorry for the disturbing photo. Does anyone have stretchmarks on the belly and hips? They started appearing after a very bad flare last year which required plasmapheresis, cyclophosphamide and 60mg predisolone. I have two long symmetrical ones on the side of my hips (that I suspect were probably caused by hanging the catheter bag on my pants). Small ones are getting longer and new ones seem to be appearing, but I don’t think my belly expanded that drastically to have produced such scars? My rheumy only suggested stretchmark cream to prevent new ones. Any insights/advice? 😩
My lupie meds:
Calcium and vit D
Hydroxychloroquine
Prednisolone 10 mg
CellCept 1000 mg BD
