I’ve noticed a pattern a few days before my period that I start to become really fatigued. I’ve been on plaquenil for 8 month and the morjority of my symptoms have disappeared. They only return few days before my expected period. Extreme fatigue that causes me to be unable to work or go out. As well as muscle aches. I would normally think this is normal period symptoms but I don’t even have cramps. It’s the same kinda fatigue I used to get before I knew I had lupus.
My rescue pack or rescue regimen is three days of prednisone at 10 mg when it starts
Well, not exactly. For me it seemed that burst of hormones just before my period was causing my flare ups. I used to get dizzy spells a few days before then extreme fatigue & severe muscle/ body aches like clockwork. I took epson salt baths to help with the pain... different than menstrual cramps.My doctor used to give me Predisone rescue pack when it got too bad.
I have same problem. I have more fatigue 2 weeks before my period. Did anything help you? Please let me know. Thanks
Absolutely! Everything worsens with my cycle..☹️
Everything is new to me... what is a prednisone ER pack??
