Guest guest Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 Hello All Recently I was diagnosed with RA. I went to the Rheummy and he took more blood than a vampire(lol)and xrays of my hands and feet. When the test results came back they were all normal. He said that is common in about 25% of the people with RA. Before the rheummy put me on Plaquenil he wanted me to go on a 3 weeks of Docycycline to make sure it is not Lyme's disease. He also put me on Prednisone. This has really made a difference in the inflamation. If I do get put on Plaquenil should I be aware of any nasty side effects? Has anyone else taken this medication? Did it work? Warm and light hugs to all. In Northern MN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
