Guest guest Posted September 4, 2006 Report Share Posted September 4, 2006 I have fibro, raynaud's disease, gastro problems, esophagus problems, chronic fatigue, chronic pain, something with liver, now my right arm,wrist,fingers. I saw a rhuematologist and not once did he ever mention any of the medicines that you guys talk about, e.g. methotrexate, folic acid, arava, plaguinel, what are these meds and what are they for, and do they work? Sorry for my ignorance, I have not had the best luck with doctors, in fact I was diagnosed by a specialist at UCLA, not one doctor here in so Oregon new what to do with me, I have been diagnosed and then undiagnosed, misdiagnosed and then finally I said the hell with this I am taking matters into my own hands, told my attending physician at the time that I did not want to see anymore doctors that they were sending me to, I found a fibro doctor at OHSU-Oregon health science university in Portland Oregon. both these doctors figured out what is wrong with me, but left everything up to primary doc, never mentioned any of theses meds like I said. any help would be great, I am looking for a new doc.
