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!

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!

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.

Can you tell me what the problem is with Quinoric, is it as effective as
plaquenil
? I just completed the
plaquenil
I was given by the hospital, and I'm on my second week of Quinoric. The only thing I've noticed is a little more nausea ,but I now drink a lot more water with the tablet. Thanks elfie

London lupus centre
My meds are steroids and
plaquenil
. I was never taken off steroids and now my body relies on them. My fingers on my hands are deformed due to the arthritic side of lupus. I am constantly told I have "complicated" lupus. What???

Hydroxychloroquine
After experiencing the disgusting aftertaste on the tongue with this medication, I was prescribed hydroxychloroquine supplied by ZENTIVA, (previously
plaquenil
) which I am very happy to report of no horrible taste!!
