Hydroxycholoquine advice

[Sunphoenix]

Like you, spanielmadlady, I’m been on hydroxychloroquine for over 13 yrs, increased from 200mg daily to 400mg daily, plus , mover the years and several flares and hospital admissions, I’m now on pregabalin for nerve pain and Mecophenolate 300mg twice daily plus numerous painkillers and various doses of prednisolone. So to welchlasscerys, I’ll say stick with it as with time you’ll see the improvement of your symptoms. And most of all, communicate your worries and symptoms with your consultant rheumatologist. This group will also be a huge support as most of us have been where you are at any point in your lupus journey. I wish you all the best. Xx

Patience is such a virtue with chronic illness.....you have to learn to ride so much out whether it be flares or side effects. The mistake I think many make is they expect to go back to how the used to be ...I'm happy to be stable .take care xx
