I'm on methotrexate once a week and
Plaquenil
daily. Since starting
Plaquenil
about 2 months ago I haven't had any big flare ups so far although I do get a fair bit of pain in my knees especially when I'm trying to sleep.

Nonstop pain
I am on
plaquenil
and it seems to have only helped my fatigue and keeps me up at night plus the pain doesn't help. I've been sleeping on my back forever and now that's hurting as well. Two nights ago I was awake all night. Money is running out and I am stressing. Help

Sometimes it's just so frustrating - at the mercy of my body
Dr said that because my immune system is depressed by
plaquenil
and compromised by my Autoimmune disease (UCTD) I am more susceptible to developing complications like this 😢. I just want to be normal and do my job and be able to look after my little girl!

Cut my hair.
Ive been on
plaquenil
, bactrim, methotrexate, prednisone and folic acid. I also, just had Rituxan infusions about a month ago. My SLE and MCTD are stable now, unfortunately not in remission. And for my ILD i dont feel any different or better in my lungs.

Methotrexate - hints and tips please
Also, I'm currently on hydroxychloroquine sulphate (
plaquenil
), forgot to ask rheumatologist.. is it usual to continue with this alongside the methotrexate? I work a mon-fri full time week in a physical job which might influence which day I should take mess? Thanks

Hi, I'm new here...
And we'll see what my opthamologist says about my eyes and
Plaquenil
. I also don't see how I'm going to manage the gastro-intestinal side effects with a 1.5 hour commute to work in each direction. The Achilles tendonitis has abated, thank goodness.

2nd degree burn with Lupus & Sjogren's
I'm on
Plaquenil
, Methotrexate, and prednisone. It's been 5 days and it's not getting any better. I know healing will take longer, but I don't know what to expect. I've been following all the advice about wound treatment, but I'm worried about infection and how everything else will come into play.

New Medication Options- please help!
I have RA and have been on MTX and
plaquenil
for 6months- time for a change says my rheumatologist. He's offering Simponi Aria infusion or Humira pens. (I went from mild to moderate RA in 6 months.)

RA and eyes
I stopped the
plaquenil
until I see the eye dr. Can this be from the medication? Or another RA symptom??

Update and help
I am on warafin,
plaquenil
, alprazolan and recently ambien. The dr lowered my
plaquenil
and my lymph nodes started to swell then got what I think is a kidney infection and had blood in my urine. It seems if I get any infections my body go crazy.

Newbie questions
My fatigue and joint pain is horrible, and although discouraged to not have a certain diagnoses, I'm happy to be starting the
plaquenil
in hopes of making the symptoms better. I have a few questions.... -has anyone had a similar situation?

Leg cramps and leg "jerks"
Am back on orencia,
plaquenil
, methotrexate, prednisone and diclofenac. I've had the RA for 40yrs. Anyone have an idea re: the leg cramps. Not able to sleep well at night or naptime. 😉

Cut back on Plaquenil?
Has anyone here ever been advised to cut back on
Plaquenil
dose because of low white blood count and low Neutrophil count? I saw a new Rheumy last week. He ran CBC. When these counts came back low (which the white count always does) he wanted me to cut my AM dose in half.

Trying Fluoxetine(Prozac) for Raynauds
Getting muscle and joint pain, fatigue under control with Celebrex,
Plaquenil
, and low dose naltrexone. I also take a lot of vitamins and natural supplements. I tried taking a calcium channel blocker for my Raynauds, but it didn't help, and caused pretty significant edema in my feet and legs.

How much to bump up?
I am currently taking
plaquenil
for 6 weeks in hopes that it will reduce inflammation and I will be able to then reduce to at least 10 slowly. I am finding that 12.5 is just not quite enough.
