Lupus and Sjogrens issue
Has anybody ever had issues with lupus/sjogrens in their ears? I caught a cold and mucus has settled in my Eustachian tubes or something and they have been blocked now for over 15 months. I have so much fullness and pressure in both ears and I have lost a lot of my hearing. Prednisone hasn't helped

Lupus connected to Radiation
I recently read an article where someone felt that Lupus was connected to radiation exposure. Around 1989 I had a full radiation treatment for breast cancer. Back then they radiated your entire side back to front and I had horrific burns. 25 years later I was diagnosed with Sjogrens and Lupus. Has anyone

Looking for typical Prednisone reduction schedule new on Actemra
Haven't been around much lately. This has probably been the worst, six months of my seven years with pmr and final recent eye surgery for double vision 7.8 Have spent the last six months deciding on starting Actemra at the urging of my rheumatologist. Round and round with insurance (U.S.) appeal, re-submission

Does GCA affect eyes in an all-or-nothing way, or are there degrees?
Hello GCA folks, I am on month 3 of prednisone (currently 15 mg), after PMR diagnosis in early June. Age 60. My question for you is: when your GCA came on, did you experience a sudden loss of vision, or did it come on gradually? And if gradual, did it affect all ranges (i.e., near, mid- and distance

PD and recovery from anesthesia
I was diagnosed 8 years ago and I'm on a daily regimen including CL 25-100s. I had a colonoscopy yesterday with Propofol administered and I'm having some trouble recovering fully today. Primarily freezing and weakness. Anyone else have this experience and if so how long did it last? Thank you
