Tried y’all’s whiskey sour (let’s try this again)

I posted this the other night, and it was my first time posting in this sub. Drank my beautiful whiskey sour after posting, hadn’t read the rules, and promptly fell asleep without posting a recipe.

So it got deleted! Posting the recipe this time 🤣

Hey! I kind of ignored my lupus (my titers were down I was feeling mild flares) and stopped going to rheum appointments the last few years. The main reason? I know it’s stupid, but I HATE taking hydroxycholoroquin

When I first started it during a flare up it was a god send and it helped but as the flare stopped and I started feeling better, the side effects kept building and building.

I experienced very frequency palpitations, debilitating diarrhea and stomach cramping that made it impossible to work at times, and VISION changes and eye pain(but was cleared by ophthalmology, eyes were fine)

Long story short, labs are kind of out of whack, I’m flaring again and doc is recommending hydroxycholoroquin again. Some meds get better with time but I felt like this med just got worse and worse. What are your thoughts?
