Will the Plaquenil alleviate the burning and pain? What will help with the tiredness?
I took plaquenil for about 6 months. It made my hair thin. I changed to another drug and tried about 5 drugs before settling on Imuran. It and plaquenil both give me tinnitus. Both work well for the pain. I also have Sjogrens but it is secondary now.
