Hi I'm back again.
I'm really really suffering at the moment. I've mentioned in my other thread about the allergic reaction to plaquenil that began over the weekend but things are just soooo much worse
The rash has spread and seems to be all joining into one big red angry rash. It's getting really itchy and really sore.
The rash now covers all my chest, tummy, back and runs down the inside of both my arms along with my scalp and face and ears. ( pretty much everywhere
)
I did see dermy on monday and he said it seems likely that it is the plaquenil and it could take a while to clear up. He also said that had I not been on prednisolone I would be so much worse which I just couldn't imagine.
I'm putting heaps of calamine lotion on but don't know what else to do. Has anybody out there experienced such a a reaction to plaquenil and how long does it last cos it's driving me round the bend.I stopped taking the plaquenil last friday so almost a week ago.
Any advice much needed cos it's all really getting on top of me.
Mrs M x
