Methotrexate and antibiotics
For anyone on methotrexate (presently or in the past), if you've had infections what antibiotics have you been prescribed? My sister has a UTI (symptoms only started today) but she took her methotrexate last night (she has rheumatoid arthritis so will also post on that site), and she's been prescribed

Malar Rash
Hi guys I was wondering what your opinion of this rash is? Does it look like a lupus rash? I’m in the MCTD and I’m on methotrexate and hydroxychloroquine. I get these rashes in a variety of different ways, always driven by sun, heat, stress or medications. Are there any other autoimmune disorders

blood tests
hi lovely people, I was wondering if you could give me any advice. I’m relatively new to all of this and I’ve had a very bad experience at my last hospital. I was misdiagnosed most of last year with Complex Regional Pain disease. My rheumatologist wouldn’t even consider an autoimmune disease. Anyway

What do you think?
I’ve been on Lupron and Xgeva since 2014 and have had many other treatments along the way. As my PSA rose I found my best treatment was Xtandi. I had pretty good results from 2017 to 2020 , then my PSA moved upward again. Looks like I’m going to fail with Nubeqa, which I have been on for 2 1/2 months

Not posted for a while, hope everyone is managing their lupus symptoms as best they can. I did think that using 50spf sun screen and taking hydroxychloroquine would keep my skin lupus at bay. However, I'm beginning to realise it is not just the sun and artificial light that my skin is sensitive to.

First PSA test post radiation and Orgovyx
My husband had his first PSA test today… about a month after 28 proton radiation treatments, and over two months on Orgovyx… Result: <0.10 This seems really good to us! ( last PSA was 46.6 before treatment) Does it sound like a good result to all of you at this stage? Meeting with medical oncology

Just saw my first rheumatologist yesterday, very confused by diagnosis?
Can you have negative rheumatoid factor, negative CCP antibodies, no pain, stiffness, swelling or symptoms in the small joints (hands, feet etc) & it still be possible to have rheumatoid arthritis? All of my symptoms for the past 5 and 1/2 months seem to be classical PMR (before I started taking prednisone

A puzzle
Helllo everyone. I came across an interesting publication from the Cleveland Clinic with the title, Is it Lupus or Fibromyalgia? It will not paste. The author is Blumenthal, MD of Rheumatology at CC. With this you can easily find it with a google. I came across it as I was looking at my new lab scores
