Guest guest Posted February 19, 2004 Report Share Posted February 19, 2004 I also remember not sleeping well, also. I have been off it for a while, just started it again. I know not sleeping well, is so frustrating. So the MTX is working for you? Are you taking pill form, or injections? I am taking 6 pills a week, but thinking about the injections, Toni was telling me how much cheaper it is, so I may go with injections. If I have to stay on it, I would rather not, Tawny > > When I took the MTX before, my hair started falling out, have you > had > > that problem?

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2004 Report Share Posted February 20, 2004 I have heard that the injections are a lot easier. That is great that you get assistance, and get it paid for. I hope that the injections work well for you, and you have pain free days, Tawny > > > > When I took the MTX before, my hair started falling out, have > you > > > had > > > > that problem?

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2005 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 Toni, Thank you for sharing with me your reaction to Enbrel. Also your friends' experiences--I'm sooooo sorry to read about their lymphoma. That, of course, is my worst fear. I'm currently not taking my enbrel, because I'm thinking i have a sinus infection. Waiting for a CAT scan to confirm. Went through one round of anitbiotics, but the pressure is still there and I get nosebleeds, so the scan is next I guess. Initially I felt the bleeding was correlated to when I gave myself my Enbrel shots, but last week, even on the antibiotics, I got a few. So there goes that. This has been going on since Dec/Jan, so I figure might as well get the Scan and see what's going on. So while I wait for the middle of June, when I can get in, I need to decide if I should restart my enbrel. Guess I should call my rheumy, huh? Thanks, again Toni.
