Guest guest Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 Friday, I have a doctor's appt to see how I am doing with the Clairthromycin and if he should change meds and if there are any more results on the bone biopsy and tissue biopsy. I would love you all forever if you could come up with some questions that I should ask this doctor (he is the infection specialist). Like, I think they just check for mycobacterium --- not sure if they checked for any other infection, etc. Also, for those who have had infections --- just what did yours feel like? My finger does not hurt all the time. I nearly kills me if I hit it on anything. And, of course, I cannot bend it. When it does hurt, it feels just like that feeling when you get a popcorn kernel stuck between your teeth and gum. Someone suggested that this may be gout. Could it be??

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 When I was on MTX and I have taken pills and injections. I was went from 1 mg to 5mg folic acid per day. Then toward the end I added leukovorin one a week to the mix, I could not tolerate the side effects of MTX and gave up on the med.
