Thx again for your answer… I have a very able-bodied husband who is absolutely zero help so you are lucky and I’m sure you deserve it as well.I have Sjogren’s along with the CIDP, also asked you arthritis, and degenerative disc disease which I think just comes with the territory. They took me off the clock well as I was originally on it for Sjogren’s and said it proves not helpful but I don’t know why they didn’t keep me on it for the arthritis because it’s painful isn’t it? MOBIC, The brand name of meloxicam is The first thing I was giving given for Sjogrens; it’s an anti-inflammatory made an immediate difference at 1st diagnosis. The generics did not work. I was given plaquenil also… to suppress immune more than for arthritis (they have since discovered in studies does not work). I just stopped the plaquenil Because of the potential damage to your eyes with macular degeneration, but now with the OsteArthritis… you’ve given me a good question to ask my Rheumatologist thank you.

I find Pain fluctuates with most of these diseases. I also have chronic migraines so once that begins all bets are off so to speak!
