Update on Hostile Rheumatology Appointment: I Finally Have Treatment 😀😀. And Update on Punctal Plugs.
Hi All. In Janurary I posted my first post here - quite upset - and not a little angry - because I'd just had a consultation with a really hostile rheumatologist who was refusing further treatment following a severe reaction to hydroxychloroquine. I saw him on Wednesday (the third appointment since

My gp diagnosed me with Sjogrens in January after seeing a Dr in the UK while visiting my parents last year, he suggested I visit my gp & mention this when got home, however because my bloods didn't show anything the Rheumatologist would only diagnose sicca ( never mind Mt tooth that snapped off) so

RHS facial paralysis since Decembhe - the longer it lasts the less likely it will go?
I had RHS on the 16 December and the left hand side of my face is still very paralyzed. My eye shuts now but doesn't blink and i find i have to tape it shut in the day sometimes as it gets sore even with the hylo forte eye drops. i have a referral to the facial nerve clinic but there is a long waiting

Do these really work
Ok so saw optometrist who agree with GP that my dry eyes is down to tear production not oil glands. Recommended Thera tears capsules, vita-pod ointment, lid wipes, heatnask & covers & hylo-forte drops to a tune of $170 but hylo-forte doing nothing can still feel my eyelids sticking occasionally, I seemed

Leflunomide Arava
Hi I would like to know how Robert17 and others feel with taking now for a few months this DMARD and what experience did you have. What about side effects? I have had PMR/GCA for over 2 years. In August I was at 6mg Predisone. Since then I am again at 10mg and the blood tests are not so good. At 6mg

Letter from GP regarding Hylo-Forte
Well what a ridiculous letter I received from my GP practice yesterday. One of my regular prescriptions - Hylo-Forte 2% eye drops Preservative Free ( prescribed by the top Ophthalmologist at my local hospital regarding the importance of protecting both my corneas - for life) has now been substituted

Eye ointment for sjogren's syndrome?
Hello, I use Hylo-forte during the day for dry eyes & Lacri-lube at night both prescribed by my doctor. I am struggling with the Lacri-lube as it is fiddly to administer and I am not sure whether it is helping or not. Could you please advise as to another brand of eye ointment that I can use at night

There are places I read that if you have lupus, you need to limit dairy intake. Then further down in the same article, they say make sure that you get plenty of yogurt. I drink milk, eat cheese, cottage cheese, yogurt. I thought all dairy was equal. The rheumy has specifically instructed me to add
