Story about Pemphigus .

pemphigus erythematosus

Nov 14, 2015

By: Melissa


Diagonsed with Lupus originally, but the medicines were not working.  After 4 skin biopsies, PE was confirmed.  I've been through Imuran, CellCept, Plaquenil, Dapsone, and Plaquenil/Dapsone combined.  Have been on steriods since confirmation.  Steroids work but wow..the weight gain, high sugar, GERD, and Osteoporosis problems over time are just icky.  Starting Rituxan therapy on 11/16/2015.  Started a facebook group for PE people as I've only found 2 others with PE globally.  I know there has to be more out there!!
