Suggest Management Of Skin Lesions, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Sjogren S, Lung Infections And Fibromyalgia
Hi, I have had mycosis fungicides for nearly 25 years. I have used nitrogen mustard, total body, accutane and interferon injections but now only use methotrexate which keeps skin lessons away. The past 10 years I have been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, autoimmune disease, sjogrens, fibromalasia along with many infections mostly in the lungs. I feel horrible most of the time and the very worst upon waking in the morning so much so I dread going to sleep. I need help but don t know where to turn

Hi,
You are having multiple autoimmune disease in which our own antibody attack own tissue and elicit inflammation. So anti-inflammatory drugs like steroid and immunosuppresant drug like Methotrexate can be prescribed. Your sleep disturbance might be due to anxiety. For that psychiatrist help can be taken.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Parth Goswami,
