The doctor even thought that it was incidental when I said I felt better ( energy, aches, throbbing, brain, head sores etc all better ) after taking a recent course of
chloroquine
.

Really struggling with dry skin
I have been diagnosed with lupus SLE for over 10yrs and am currently on
chloroquine
. I have had rashes all over my body for approx 3 years and they seem to be getting worse. I am under the dermatologist who has prescribed dapsone and various creams and lotions, none of which seem to work.

Off all meds!
Tried sulphasalazine and hydroxy
chloroquine
but allergic to both. Last few months introduced Leflunomide...various side effects, but persevered.

Suffering in silence due to GP saying it's all in your head!!
confident enough to go and tell my rheumatology consultant and nurse how I really feel I've been struggling on the meds anyway with only having one kidney they cut me down to bare minimum which I can't believe they thought would help when most of my week was bad days on 25mg meth injections and hydroxy

Better... but not better
Since starting prednisolone and hydroxy
chloroquine
I have already seen an improvement in my energy levels and my muscle and joint aches and pains are less. But I seem to more varied symptoms internally. I have more pains in the kidney area and seem to be urinating a ridiculous amount in the night.

heat rash- not livedo reticularis but similar
Then I went on
chloroquine
after miscarriage #2 and it went away. I have only been back on
chloroquine
a couple of weeks since I was off it when I was pregnant and this weekend when I was in the sun, it came back.

What would be the next step?
Briefly, I was put on
chloroquine
but had a severe reaction to it (diarrhea and vomiting) . My blood work still shows high antibodies to my ds-dna and Ana is still positive. Compared to many, I am sure my Lupus seems well managed but I haven't had a well day in five years.

Any advice regarding dealing with the nhs
I was diagnosed with lupus about 3 years ago and put on hydroxy
chloroquine
. My main symptoms at the time were fatigue and some muscle and joint pain. Following my initial rheumatology appointments I was told I would have 6 monthly check ups.
