Hello everyone,
I wanted to share that I have seen improvement in my morning fatigue and stiffness since starting Plaquenil about
a month and a half ago. I still get very fatigued around 5 pm but am relieved to see some improvement.
Just wanted to share. Hope everyone is having pain free (or low amount of pain) day.

It's wonderful when that plaquenil kicks in.
I felt so much better when it got started fully. How long have you been on it now?

Only a month and half. The fatigue is so much better in the mornings. I don't wake up feeling tired anymore but it comes down on me around 5 pm. Just happy to get some relief.

Six weeks was when I started feeling it. Some people feel even better at three months. Glad it's working for you.

I remember years ago when I first started taking plaquenil... at the 6 week mark I only noticed a slight difference.. 3 months later though I was a completely different person physically.. felt WAY more like my myself and capable to do a lot more once that horrible fatigue that had plagued me lightened. I'm glad that you're noticing a difference.
