I’m taking Plaquenil and doctor is working through the list of drugs I must try before infusions. Currently on Cellcept. I also take other drugs for Sjogren’s symptoms, dry eye, GERD, etc. It’s crazy. 🤑
Tell me more about the small fiber biopsy. Does it hurt? Is there a big incision? Where? How long is the procedure? I will need wound care, slow healer. Ugh.
Also, is IVIG a capsule? What drugs do you take for Sjogren’s?
Talked with my internist this this morning. He’ll work with my Rheumatologist after my appointment on Wednesday. Although I trust both doctors, knowledge helps me ask the important questions. Thank you for your response.
