Yes when I was diagnosed with lupus 4 years ago I had nodules on my hands from having RA for 7 years. My rheumy dr put me I plaqunil and cell cept. Things started to get better.

I'm sorry yours are causing you so much pain. If you don't see changes very soon then I would get back to your Dr.
Praying for you

Rhumotolgist will not be until November. I guess with this illness is all about management.
Let me know how Dr visit goes. Praying you're feeling better.
Yes smart. Get it checked out.
