Guest guest Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 My question is has anyone ever gone on second opinions? I know that everything that my Rhuemie is doing is right on protocol but my husband who is in the medical field and other family members keep telling me that I need to see someone else. I started Immuran this week and uped my Steroids back to 20 mg and cannot seem to get relief im my joints or lungs. My husband seems to think like most people that because I am taking a medicine I should get better. Is it worth it to try and go to a big medical center and see someone who is involved in research? I know the one book about Lupus that I read had a whole lot of tests tin it that I have never had.I just feel really alone in this. I am not sure what to do and find it really frustrating that I am constantly exhasuted. I have three kids that require all of my energy. I get them on thier buses pick up the house and maybe get one load of laundry done and I have to lay down until I pick them up and start driving them to all of their functions. Things have to change but I am not sure how or what and I am really nervous about the summer with them all home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
