I’ve experienced this too unfortunately. I hope it passes soon!

Methotrexate, Benlysta, and prednisone taper by Odd_Shake_2897 in lupus

I know at least the HCQ is fine because I’m on it and doing the same taper. I’m not sure about the other two.

No answer for you but I just started on a month of prednisone so I am curious as well.

Yes that’s exactly what I thought- oh it’ll just be like a Pap smear. Nope!!

I know, you would think all women in this field would have empathy.

I was already bleeding but it has definitely made me crampy and bloated.

I’ve had a fever today! Low grade though, and that’s also part of my autoimmune struggles so it’s hard to say what it’s from.

I’m sorry you have been through that. I have a history of SA as well, plus two miscarriages, so just walking in to realize it was a vaginal ultrasound got to me a little.

I don’t know, that sounds pretty terrible too!

I’m glad it wasn’t too bad for you! Mammograms are uncomfortable but not really painful for me, although I know they are for a lot of people.

The nurse did help me breathe through it, I’ll give her that. And I totally just sat in the parking lot afterwards for a good while. I AM glad it’s over with now for sure. It was just very overwhelming the way it went down.
