Same here. The plaque nil does seem to slow the progression but I don’t find system relief. I also have not found a good rheumatologist sine I have moved.my primary care does more than anyone else thankfully@@

I live in the Phoenix/Scottsdale, AZ area. I have been seeing Dr. Lester Mertz at the Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale for over 5 years. He has been treating me for vasculitis and oesteoarthritis with a combination of different medications that have both in check. Many travel from out-of-state for treatment there for a variety of conditions. I wish you the best and I hope this info helped.

Hi @ccorrconro, and welcome to Connect. I’m glad you chose to share your story with us. Would you be willing to share more about your journey? Was this a recent diagnosis? What are your current treatment plans?
I’d like to connect you with a few other members who have had similar diagnoses and symptoms and can share their experiences. @emmie, @mswanda, @conniesgore and @tedib, I would like to introduce you to @ccorrconro. She is looking to share with people who are also managing an autoimmune disease, like Sjrogren’s and lupus.
