Hello All, I am venturing into new territory. It just dawned on me that a good experiment would be to try a medical grade CBD oil tincture on my hairline and see if it affects the redness. CBD is the nonpsychoactive part of marijuana that is being…Continue

Hi Celia:
I started taking Plaquenil about 3 weeks ago after resisting for 4 months. Other than that I stated taking a Curcumin/bromelain/Bioperine/papain/Quercetin supplement all inclusive. No hidden fillers, preservatives, Non Gmo(which is a big issue in the US), no sugar, yeast, soy and more.It's said to be a be optimized for potency and absorption. Very high concentration 95% curcuminoids. Just stated it so I will see what happens.. Am also taking multivitamins based solely on organic whole foods, nothing synthetic. Had terrible itching for almost 2 weeks, but it's subsided since the past 3 days.. Not sure if that's due to the supplements.... Am not happy about taking the Plaquenil and am giving it 6 months and will decide to discontinue...I hope you are feeling better. I know it's hard to keep optimistic. Thanks AC..I would be great if you kept me updated with your progress on the Wobenzym..have a goodnight all...xx

Hi Simone.
I will. I share your caution...that's exactly why I'm avoiding plaquenil. I am only game for trying the wobenzym on the recommendation of someone found it successful with her autoimmune issue.

Celia-- if the site wasn't open, I would have never found the group. But, I am also very concerned about privacy. That's why I don't post any photos, or how much identifying information.

Hi AC:

Could you let me know when and if you see an difference taking the Wobemzym after a while? I would love to try this but am weary of all these supplements..I've been taking Tumeric for about 1 week now so I'm still waiting to see if there are any changes...thanks..

Oops, didn't mean to post that yet. The Wobenzym allowed her to get completely off plaquenil, and she is symptom free, after having years of debilitating pain. It seems to have helped her inflammatory loop stop. So, I recently ordered that and started taking that as well.
