I am a little baffled and confused..
From January I have been in pain throughout my body, my hands have been puffy and sore,I’ve wee red dots develope on my face and body..
So in June I saw the rheumatologist for the first time. A whole barrage of tests were carried out,everything seemed pretty normal except my crp was slightly elevated and I tested positive again for antinuclear antibody centremere.
So on that basis she said most of my pains sounds like fibromyalgia but she is treating me for limited schleroderma , although she hesitated to commit to that diagnosis.
She started treating me with amytriptiline and hydroxychloiquine which has helped a lot .
All my test seemed to be coming back normal, ecg, lung X-ray,spironmetry, capillaroscopy.
So I am fairly sure she may say no to the schleroderma.
On this basis I am afraid if she rules this out and takes me off the hydroxychloriquine and I relapse back into a flare, what will I do..
Anybody have this experience
