I have Crohns disease for which I have recently had surgery. I am tapering off the steroids from 40mg starting last week to 0 over 8 weeks. And should begin Infliximab next week, then 2 weeks later, then 4 weeks, then 6 weeks eventually reaching maintenance dose of every 8 weeks. The skin around my mouth both below and above has really suffered from my illness. Lots of lines where 2 years ago there were none. I am 58 years old and had excellent skin for my age until Now.
IAM 60YRS. OLD & HAVE SJOGRENS SYNDROME FOR 20 YRS. WHICH I TAKE 200MG OF PLAQUENIL TWICE A DAY. I'M RESEARCHING JUVEDERM & NEED TO KNOW IF PLAQUENIL IS A IMMUNOSUPPRESSANT? I'VE ASKED PHARMACIST & WAS TOLD IT'S A ANTI-MALARIAL BUT COULD BE A SUPPRESSANT.
I'm 59. I've had 3 syringes (on separate occasions) of Juvederm in my marionette lines. Each and every time the results lasted only 2 weeks or less! I'm so frustrated spending all this money, but cannot afford a mid-face lift at this point. One marionette line is worse than the other. What advice can you give me for this?
I had 4 syringes of Juvederm injected in a plastic surgeon's office in January. In February, I had joint pain in both knees, feet, and hips. I also have a lot of muscle pain in my quads and hamstrings. I am 62 years of age, and was very pleased with the results of the injections. Also in my knees, it feels thick and gel-like. If you have arthritis can use still have these injections?
