I'm curious if the joint pain I'm experiencing now could be related to my low platelet issue from 4 to 5 weeks ago. Everything else feels pretty good, but this pain is bothering me. What could be the cause?

I'm taking HCQS tablets in the morning and at night for synovitis treatment, but I recently noticed during a routine blood test that my iron levels are low. Is there a particular iron supplement I can take alongside HCQS without worrying about any interactions?

You can consider taking ferrous sulfate or ferrous fumarate iron supplements, which are generally well-tolerated and less likely to interact with HCQS

What happens if the synovial membrane in the knee joint bursts? Can it heal on its own, and if so, how long does it typically take for recovery? I'm really concerned about what to expect with this kind of injury.

Being someone who's dealing with rheumatoid arthritis, I'm really worried because I haven't been able to get HCQS 200 for about a month and a half now. Are there any other medicines I could use as an alternative? It's been tough managing without it, and I'd appreciate any advice you can give on what I should do next.

HCQS 200 also available as OXCQ 200 mg Can try that
