Hello, I would really love to know what are the risks of taking Plaquenil.
My doctor prescribed it to me even though I am not diagnosed with a firm lupus - but I have strange autoimmune problem and it affects my central nervous system. I feel like a zombie - my hands and legs are very weak and I'm having lack of concentration. I am getting tired quickly and I am getting problems working because of this problem. There are some lucky days when I do feel perfectly normal, but unfortunately they are very rare - most days I have these symptoms.
That is why I have to take this medication but I want to know it side effects. I've already done some research about it and found out that my stomach can start bothering me, it can affect my eyes and I will have hair fall. Is this so bad? Because I've read some cases where it worked perfect and cured people just fine. I want to ask other people if someone is already taking it? And what side effects do you noticed? I really would like to know everything you've got about this medication.
I hope for a quick feedback, thanks in advance.
Ruth
