I've had pmr for 4 years and 3 doctors have suggested Hydroxychloroquine suggesting I may be leaning towards Lupus. My bloodwork shows Speckled. Has anyone had a similar diagnosis?

Hi Ronswife - I have something vaguely similar, but the other way round - diagnosed with UCTD 2 years ago, then GCA 6 months ago. All in the autoimmune basket along with several others such as Raynauds, Autoimmune Gastritis and Pericarditis homogenous blood work. Hope you are getting treatment for your Lupus?
