Guest guest Posted October 24, 2006 Report Share Posted October 24, 2006 Am I crazy to want to take my 13 yo daughter off MTX because she is losing her hair in great clumps? If she had cancer I wouldn't stop chemotherapy. Am I crazy to do this? She cried for a couple of hours tonight and we bought a couple of hats but she is so depressed about the hair loss and the big bald spot on top of her head is getting bigger every day. I wonder how much faster RA will progress without the MTX if I keep her on Humira and Minocyn. My doctor is convinced that Humira works best when accompanied by MTX. I don't mean to be whining here, but I value your input because you all are living with this disease and I'm not. I'm just trying to keep my daughter as healthy as possible both physically and emotionally. Lori in NJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
