Guest guest Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 From C . . . . I was diagnosed three weeks ago and I also was worried about Plaquenil's side effects. One of the moderators of this group, Mojo, wrote a reassuring reply which made me feel a lot better. So I went head with the Plaquenil and now three weeks later I can feel the difference. Less muscle pain, memory still foggy but getting better, appetite back again, less confusion about the whole issue. I take 200 mg tablets twice a day which my rheumy says is a small dose. My liver also was/is involved but he says one good thing about the liver is it's the only organ in the body that's regenerative and also as long as I keep up with the blood work there should be no problems with it. So hang in there and know there are people who know what you're going through and have your best interests at heart. I'm still new myself but have become much, much more knowledgeable since joining this group. Your doll sculpting sounds fascinating. You must have a creative set of hands. Good luck and lots of love, C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 Hi Thanks so much for the nice reply. I can tell already this group is going to be a great place to release worry and get some support. It's nice to know that others have the same situations and can relate. I am going ahead with the plaquenil and hope all goes well. Have a great day! Carol > From C . . . . I was diagnosed three weeks ago and I also was > worried about Plaquenil's side effects.
