Anyone else on Kineret or MTX notice an increase in foot/leg edema?

I've been getting it sporadically since I started Kineret a year ago,

but it always went away after a couple of days. Now it seems to be

permanent and worse--my calves are huge and

yes, that happened to me too, it didn't cause swelling right away but did

after a while. I'm on HBP meds now and the swelling has decreased most of the

time now. Good luck.

God who gave us life gave us liberty. And can the liberties of a nation be

thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the

minds of the people that these liberties are a gift from God? That they are not

to be violated but with His wrath? Indeed I tremble for my country when I

reflect that God is just, and that His justice cannot sleep forever. " (excerpts

Yes, I also have edema on the Kineret. I hate it. It gets to where

my hands and feet literally hurt. But I can't live without the

Kineret. I am goign to talk to my doc about a water pill or something

to help. I'd rather than than switch from something that currently

works for me.

-- I got a chuckle thinking about me sitting here at my desk

with my feet propped up. I sit in an open environmentn so everyone

can see me and I just love the image!

I left a message to get into my RD this month before she ends her

fellowship and moves on. I want to talk to her about the swelling as

well. I can't keep going like this. Ridiculous to be so swollen every

morning.
