Almost drug free and now pain free
12 months ago I was on 25 mg of Methotrexate a week,
Plaquenil
400mg a day and 4 tablets of Sulphsalazine a day also I was taking Naprosyn to reduce the pain. For the past 10 months I have been on the Paddison program it hasn’t been easy but it has been life changing.

What would be the next step?
I've been on
plaquenil
for almost two. 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.

Just seen Professor Cruz with a result I think ?
He suggested a combination of aspirin,statins and
plaquenil
which will keep my blood thin enough without the risks. He said he is sending me over to hemotology at St Thomas to see someone as the Lupus clinic is only caring for unstable APS patients now. Has anyone else been sent over to st Thomas ?

Daughter with autoimmune probs
She's on
plaquenil
and prednisone right now, prednisone has helped her tremendously with her pain. Unfortunately, she can't be on that forever so her rheum is talking about starting her on Imuran or Methotrexate.

Rundown woman syndrome?
He put me on
plaquenil
twice a day for 12 weeks. Having a diagnosis was so validating! After years of searching! Then we did blood work again. Because my blood was unremarkable he took me off the
plaquenil
and prescribed skalaxin. He also rescinded my MCTD diagnosis.

First post. Nervous and scared. Would love some encouragement/insight.
The rheumatoloist said she would start
plaquenil
if I started to have symptoms, but she believes I don't have the clinical disease. Anyone been through something similar? I've been doing reading - too much reading - and I know there are lots of explanations.

Sjogrens and outdoor work
I was diagnose when I was 22, I am now 35 I take
Plaquenil
, which helps my sore joints but I am very light sensitive, and have virtually no tears or saliva. I am thinking about a career change for my own health?

Zentiva and Plaquenil
Has anyone else had any difficulty with the
Plaquenil
/Zentiva change, or does anyone know if the formula is EXACTLY the same??? Could there be a slight variation in it that for some reason means it isn't being used by my body as effectively as
Plaquenil
??

Asking your opinion
Just starting the
plaquenil
and my symptoms haven't gotten any better. I thought for so long I was a hypochondriac and a freak of nature. I am security at a medium security correctional facility. The hours are long and the work is taxing.

Grateful for any advice
I am taking Levo,
Plaquenil
(or new name) and have had steroid injections to help. I still feel absolutely exhausted and am sure that I'm not on a big enough dose of Levo to help (although recent bloods show TSH down at 2.4 (a good thing?)).

should I take methotrexate with a cold?
Hi all I was diagnosed with Churg Strauss just under three years ago and I am currently on Methotrexate and
Plaquenil
, which I have responded to very well, I have been stable for about two years. At the moment I have a streaming cold, the first I have had since diagnosis (!)

Mixed Connective Tissue disease?
I have been on
plaquenil
for eight weeks, and there hasn't been any change in my symptoms. A new symptom recently popped up. I lost part of my vision for about an hour. Then it came back. I'm really hoping the treatment plan changes so my symptoms will be relieved!

So frustrated by hospital appointment
On the positive side he said that if the tests are still positive he will send me a prescription for
plaquenil
so I don't have to wait until I see him again in late November.

Professor Graham Hughes August and September Blog 2015 (mention of Thyroid and Fibromyalgia)
Two years later, the patient remains well and almost symptom-free on warfarin (Coumadin), with added
Plaquenil
(hydroxychloroquine) for her Sjogren’s aches and pains. An guess what – a third (newer) test for Hughes Syndrome – the so called ‘Beta2’ test, came back strongly positive!
