Quick visit to the hospital today.

Well – 2 hours actually but only about 10-15 minutes of that time was spent actually talking to a medic. Seems my bloodwork has normalised again which might explain why I’ve been relatively free from the really nasty joint pain and had very few ‘flu-type’ bouts over the past 3 months.

Still withholding an official diagnosis but unofficially classing it as ‘mild lupus’. Turns out I should have been on a double dose of the Plaquenil for 3 months not three weeks as I was told but they’ve told me to stick with the single dose for now as, in the longer term, it doesn’t really matter.

Not due back again for another 6 months – fingers crossed.
