Starting methotrexate
She's totally lost knowing what to do with me - I've had to come off
plaquenil
again as it's just making me so sick and such bad stomach acid I just can't cope with it.

Are you aware of any muscle pains associated with the
plaquenil
? Last night standing in line and had weird sensation almost like a tight muscle, pulling from just below groin to just bbelow knee on left leg.. turned into almost achy and dull.

HELP!!!! Side effects from starting Plaquenil???????
I've been on
Plaquenil
now for about 2 weeks now. My doc is on the fence if I have Lupus or not but she is seeing if I respond to the meds and feel better then she is diagnosing me. Well......started two days ago, I feel the mouth sores coming on (have 2 that just sprouted).

Rheumy Update
I'm curious if the
Plaquenil
alone will make me feel better once I am off the steroids. Fingers crossed!!!!

Could be Lupus or DILE - newly diagnosed and feeling devastated.
Like I will just stay on Orencia for the RA and
plaquenil
until something bad turns up in my blood work. i have my normal ra pains and the rash. I do get bad migraines which have started to last days at a time around my period for the past year.

Hair loss STILL!
Hi All, I have been treated with
plaquenil
for 6 months now and been on imuran and 5mg prednislone for just over two months. My hair has been falling out for about 4 months but the last couple of months it has happened very quickly.

I also take
plaquenil
with the azathrioprine. I have only been on it for three weeks. I am having a huge flare with intense joint pain in my jaw, SI joint hips and shoulder. I have a balky dry cough when I lay down. I have not felt this horrible since I was diagnosed with Seroneg RA.

APS symptoms?
I have SLE and am on
plaquenil
(hydroxychloroquine). What are the primary blood tests for APS? Who is responsible for these tests, a haematologist or rheumatologist or neurologist? Sorry for all the questions. Thanks in advance.

HUVS and Xolair (omalizumab)
After trying out antihistamines,
plaquenil
, corticosteroides, dapsone, azatioprine, methotrexate, hydroxychloroquine my doctors gave me Xolair (omalizumab). After six shots a felt better then ever. Now they won't give me any more. The reason given is little research and scientific evidence.

Hydroxychloroquine - Plaquenil Alternative
I originally took
Plaquenil
(Sanofi) but this brand is now discontinued. The generic form of this, on my prescription, gives me serious digestion and stomach upsets to a point I spent months trying to figure out what I thought was irritable bowel syndrome.

Methotrexate - the good, the bad and the ugly?
I've been trying to take
plaquenil
over the last year or so having been unable to tolerate it in the past. This time round I go through the odd week where I feel ok on it but then it'll upset my stomach so badly again it becomes intolerable.

Serrapeptase or not.
My question is: Has anyone tried Serrapeptase and have you used it as a supplement to Zentiva/
Plaquenil
( Hydroxychloroquine) and Prednisolone?

New
After years of prednisone,
plaquenil
and methotrexate, I decided to stop all my meds because I was still having major flares taking these terrible drugs. I'm on a more natural routine now and praying that this will help me with my pain and lesson my flares.

Humira and a cold
Hello, I have RA, I have been on Methotrexate, and
Plaquenil
. I just recently began Humira injections. I am supposed to do an injection, but I have a cold. I know we are not supposed to inject if we have any infection, but is ok to do with a cold?

Dryness problems
Rheumy wanted me to try
plaquenil
but gp wasn't keen, probably because I'm on so many meds already. I use what I think is a steroid nasal spray but Is that just adding to the problems by drying everything out ? Any advice?? Many thanks x
