- I'm in a flare and I have a rash on the front of my neck and upper chest. I have the other usual symptoms like fatigue and joint pain. Every time I get a rash it is on my neck. It is itchy, painful, red and kind of crusty feeling. TMI, I know. ...
- I'm having a flare with rash, fever, blurry vision, joint pain, abdominal pain, and a burning sensation throughout my upper digestive system. I am perperplexed about the constant burning. It is commom for me to have burning joints and muscles, but...
- I had been improving so much since being on Plaquenil for a few months that I had convinced myself I was cured or never really sick to begin with. Starting Monday afternoon my body let me know that it is not my imagination. My fatigue hasn't come...
- I have been taking Plaquenil for a few months. I recently failed the vision screening for peripheral vision. I do get to retest, but if I fail again my doctor will probably take me off Plaquenil. Does anyone know if the other disease modifying...
- Has anyone experience swelling and pain on the top side of one foot? I did not injure it and there is no bruising, just swelling. It is really painful to walk on.
- I recently had my first dental visit since I got sick. I had a cleaning and a filling and for the first time ever, my teeth are sensitive to hot and cold. My tooth is still painful from the filling and it has been two months. I called my dentist...
- I just want to rip my skin off. That's all I have to say about that.
- I just stopped taking narcotic pain killers a week ago after almost a year. I feel like I dodged a bullet because it was so easy to quit. Now I have a terrible toothache. I'm definitely not going to take hydrocodone or Nucynta, but the aleve...
- I have been taking prescription pain killers for almost a year. My pain has been less intense over the past couple of weeks so I have been taking a lot fewer pills, although I would take at least one a day. Yesterday I did not take any and about 3...
- I have been experiencing blurry vision for a couple of years now. It is getting much worse. I used to have it a few days a week, but now I have it everyday. Like all of my other symptoms except edema, it starts in about 2 or 3 hours after I get...
- Well the bright side of hair loss is no more armpit hair. I know that is TMI but I am always sharing my complaints so I thought I would share the good news. I have gotten used to the idea of wigs in my future and I have to say I won't miss styling...
- Trying to be a normal person. Spending the week in Florida with my teenage daughter and trying to enjoy our beach vacation like I used to. I know the sun is a no no but I justify it to myself out if guilt and tell myself it is okay because I am...
- I am happy to be back in the office. I think the Plaquenil might be starting to work. I am down to 10 mg of Prednisone a day which is quite an accomplishment. I'm all drugged up on pain killers, but hey....I am at work. That is something I...
- I have been having tingling and slight numbness of my mouth. My lips and especially my tongue turn blue. I have asked several doctors about it and none of them have ever seen anything like it. The last doctor I showed it to kind of freaked out. ...
- Just noticed my hair is falling out. How bad will it get? Will I go bald? Are there any effective treatments?
