Hi,
i just had a episode of fever for 21 days strait, then my ankles swelled and my liver test came back very elevated, my gp immediately took me off cholesterol med, ( I was on no other meds) I was sent to the rheum and he considers it a lupus flare possibly which I have never had before. ( I basically have only had discoid lupus) So they dont know positively if it was lupus or the generic zocor inflaming my liver, They aimed at lupus since my sed rate was up and smooth muscle test ( whatever that is) was 12, ( should be 35 or higher) and the fever was on going for so long. I am finally felling better the fever gone and my ankles are normal and liver enzymes are normal now. I am going to start imuran now. I also thought wouldnt this drug make my liver act up again? anyway i guess ill give it a shot it might help my discoid spots get better, and i have been putting it off for the past 2 years,,
