Researchers Uncover Biological Rationale For Why Intensive Lupus Treatment Works
It makes total sense why two weeks ago my own PCP gave me two injections, rather than one due to a Lupus flare I have been dealing with. I wondered why he changed the "protocol" and gave me two shots, but did not increase my oral prednisone. After reading this article, now I know. He has been much better in dealing with my Lupus Flares, helping with medications, and keeping my Lupus half way under control, than any of my Rheumys. Hopefully Benylsta will be out and approved very soon. I have finally found another Rheumy, but my appointment is not until the 2nd of September! After the last 5 turned out badly, they really did little or nothing to help with the Lupus, I am hoping this woman will be better. It is nuts, but I am finding more so called "specialists" like Rheumy's in the business who do little to deal with Lupus.
