Hello. I started my plaquenil back in July.. I had my visual feild test done (routine) about two weeks ago and just received a call from the eye doc. He said my right eye was fine but that I had some defects in my left eye and wanted to know if I noticed anything visual changes. I told him that at the time I just found out about my seizures and that was my first day starting my seizure meds.. I asked him if it could be from the seizures but he was almost sure it was from the medication so I will go in this Friday to repeat the test and if the same result occur then he mentioned that he will need to speak with my rhuemie about stopping this med and starting a different one.. WTH?? I feel sort of thrown off right about now.. if I have to stop the plaquenil then what .. you slowly come down and then what do they put you on? What happens with my visual defects.. do they over time heal? (sorry for all the questions.. just a tad bit unnerved at the moment..)
