Anyone taking Benlysta?

Hello friends. I've had to go on medical leave due to an extreme flare. I was diagnosed about 11-12 years ago and after I got on benlysta I felt fantastic! Now, it has stopped working and its all I can do to get out of bed all day. Does anyone have similar experience with Benlysta?#Benlysta #flare #SLE #Lupus

I have been in a sea of trying to get my doctor on track with me.
I have been dealing with candida that has taken over my mouth sense before #Christmas and so far she has thrown #Diflucan at it and #nystatin rinse at it along with me doing a #candida cleanse nothings working.
Now she wants to cut my #Topamax because I’m wanting to change from my #Plaquenil to #Benlysta due to my chronic #Nightmares that make me feel like I’m suffering a #HeartAttack nightly. When I do sleep…
Anyone have any sort of experience in these areas?
TIA!!

Is anyone on Benlysta infusions for Lupus? Please share your experience.

I am currently taking Plaquenil and weekly Otrexup (methotrexate) injections as well as Prednisone as needed. The injections cause severe exhaustion on days 3-5 which is difficult with two kids. Rheum and I discussed Benlysta as a possibility if the. Otrexup continued to be an issue #Lupus #Benlysta #SystemicLupusErythematosus
