Dr. Schue's office called today with results of the 15 labs they ordered on me.
My lupus markers again came back negative. Which i'm pretty happy about. However he is keeping my diagnosis the same Cantaneous Lupus, because i have all of the physical symptoms. So i'm going to continue to keep taking my plaquenil to keep the ulcers, and rashes under control for now.
He did notice that i had a few abnormalities in some other blood work that caused him a little concern so he asked i come back in, in a month to repeat the labs. No big deal, and he will see me in June to discuss his findings in my blood work. He really is a great doctor. His staff is so nice.
Since i'm a visual person i want to SHOW you the difference in treatment with the doctors.
This is a picture of the meds i was taking to try to gain some relief....

Sadly all these meds were not coming close in helping me control any of the pain.
This picture is what i'm currently taking. I'm finding a lot of relief......

Super glad to see the lesser amount! I hope that one day it will be M&M's in your hand instead of medication. Hugs to ya, girl. What an inspration you are.
