Hi Everyone!
Could anybody help? I recentley started 30mg prednisolone and 200mg plaquenil daily two weeks ago. It's just been great the response to the meds. I truly feel like a different person. I am still getting very tired but the aches and pains etc have really eased.
( which I'm truly grateful for)
Although so far a good response I am still having trouble with my fingers. The joint of each of my fingers are really swelling in this lovely sun that we're having. They're quite painful and seem to be cracking slightly and are discoloured still. The skin is also quite rough and thick?If I pinch them it takes forever for the skin to settle back down onto my finger? Not sure if this means anything:lol:
I did recently have a skin biopsy of my fingers which was in keeping with lymphocytic vasculitis so I'm wondering if the meds aren't working or that maybe I should give the meds longer to work? If any of you can advise that would be great.
Many thanks
Mrs M xx
Hope you are all having a good day today
