What Are The Symptoms Of Rheumatoid Arthritis And Graves Disease?
Hi, I have recently been diagnosed as having a problem with my immune system - currently appearing as rheumatoid arthritis and Graves disease. I am on 20mg Carbimazol per day (just increased from 10mg since my white blood cell count has risen to normal levels) and 40mg Inderal per day; and 30mg mirtazapine for depression; as well as Brufen as required for pain. I have muscular pain in my arms and legs at times, and at other times 'restless' arms and legs; fatigue; and generally feeling unwell. I have also recently developed a very painful patch on my tongue (not obviously a pimple but the area is raised). I also have a painful ear. Do you think the tongue and ear could be related to either my current medications - or my autoimmune disorders?
