"My #rheumatologist then suggested trying #rituximab — a new #biologic drug in #Singapore back then. I would only be the 7th patient in the hospital to try it & the side effects included death..It would also cost a ‘mere’ $10,000, with no guarantee of success.": buff.ly/c5iCU9y

I saw the #rheumatologist that my GP referred me to. It was a huge waste of time and so depressing. I felt like he had me pegged before he even came in the room. "Blah blah your ana markers aren't high enough blah the only definitive test for #sjogrens is a lip biopsy blah but you don't need one"

I am seeing my new #rheumatologist tomorrow. Send good vibes please
I'm more than a little apprehensive. 🥺

Luckily my cousin is taking me and she has nurse training so she won't take no shit.
