I started at 15mg in 2023 and got it down to 1 in 2024. Shortly thereafter I was back at 7 and have been up and down since then. I had been at 1mg for 3 months but as of today I am back at 5.
Also about 2 months ago my rheumatologist placed me on 400mg hydroxychloroquine per day.
I have yet to see any benefit but I know it is a 3-4 month startup. I see many others have it much worse than me so I will not complain to much.
Thanks for asking.
