Guest guest Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 Hi ,a and everyone Last week I had to go to London to see the Rheumy. He was not happy with the results of taking methotrexate for five months because my feet have now become affected. I cant stand for long and the soles of my feel and my toes hurt badly. He has now prescribed Sulfasalazine and Plaquenil as well as mtx. Can you tell me what these drugs are and what possible side effects to expect. I didnt feel I could ask many questions while at the hospital because the Rheumy was instructing a number of students and I did feel a little embarrassed with them all having a prod at me and counting the affected bones. Also he told the students that there was no Rheumatoid factor in my blood, What does this mean? I also have this dry eye syndrom and am suffering greatly with fatigue. Sorry to go on whinging but any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated. This group is such a wonderful support.
