Has anyone had neurological issues resolved with a Plaquenil treatment?
If so, were they statin related?

I took plaquenil for a few years and it didn't do anything for my SFN. I have lupus-related antibodies but no symptoms other than neuropathy (including severe muscle pain). I've never taken statins.
