Who & where are the best doctors & hospitals for lupus and Mixed Connective Tissue Disease (MCTD)? |
I have been diagnosed with first, MCTD, then, Lupus. Three years it caused an infection in my heart that left me with a moderate aortic vaulve leak. My skin is badly mottled and has constant rashes and sores. I have headaches, muscle pain, and joint pain. I am on Plaquenil Tabs 200 mg 2x a day, Skelaxin-800 1x day, Etodolac 500 mg 2x a day, Allegra 180 mg 1x day, Celcept 500 3x a day, Clobetasol Propionate Cream 0.05% 2x, Folic Acid 1 mg 5tabs daily plus additional meds for heart, hypothyroid, depression and sleep. Want to be more functional with less pain and less skin problems. You don't say what state you are in so I have included a link to the Lupus Foundation of America. The have local chapters which will direct you to doctors. Also, a good lupus blog or chat room will have people discussing both their good and bad experiences with doctors. You might be able to exchange with a person in your area. Call your local hospital and see if they have any lupus support groups. Good luck with your treatments. Source(s): http://www.lupus.org/ Massachusetts has some of the best doctors in the United States. I live in Rhode Island and I will always keep my doctors in Mass. I don't know but what you can do is ask around and maybe somebody would help you with your situation that you have. |
