Hi everyone, I started methotrexate injections as well as 20mg prednisone a day plus 400mg plaquenil just over a month ago, I’ve been having blood tests every week, my leucocytes are rising last ones were 18.3 G/L my neutrophils are 17,22 G/L and my lymphocytes are 0,69 G/L, trying to get hold of my lupus socialist is just a nightmare she never answers. I went to my gp as I’ve been getting bad heart palpitations I can feel my heart beating really loud which is uncommon for me. The doctor said my heart was beating to fast and it’s likely due to the prednisone. I’ve swelled up these past few weeks I’ve had to take my rings off and my legs just feel heavy. Anyway she didn’t like my blood tests rising so she said we would see what todays results are and then go from there wether she’ll contact the hospital or not. I usually don’t think much about my blood test results but I just feel overwhelmed with anxiety today and really fed up. Thanks for reading and if anyone has any similar experiences. Thank you
