My doc. Says flair ups come and go. Is it possible for a flair up to not end? Does that happen? I've been in a flair up for8 months. The first 2 months I was not on Plaquenil, but I have been on it now for 6 months. I'm ready to start feeling better now

I'm going on a progressive flare up for 2 1/2 years. My doctor hasn't been able to find the right medication to help me yet because lupu has made me allergic to everything. Just don't give up an be open to trying different medications you will find the one that helps an makes you feel human again

I've been in a flare up for over a year. I've noticed that my flare up may increase or decrease in pain levels. I've noticed the difference between a flare up and not is that I'm more active and times when waking up I am able to move easier. Plaqunil has been very common to help people get into remission!

What is a norm for some is not the norm for others. I was in a continuous flare for three years some time worse than others but no relief. It's a challenge for providers to find the correct combination of medications than are going to find you relief.
