Guest guest Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 Went to Rheumatologist today he told me the last blood test showed my RA was very aggressive and we needed to step up my treatment in order for me to function. He explained the risks and suggested that I start taking Embrel injections along with mtx. He also increased my mtx to six tablets a week. He said I may be in pain for a while longer but we would find a treatment plan that would work well for me. He also told me to start applying for SS. He also prescribed me Hydroco/APAP Tab 10- 325. I took them this evening and the medication helped me enough to walk around, that was good. I want to let everyone know I have not given up and read your emails daily. This disease sucks and people should understand how we feel daily. I have snapped at people before when I am in pain, it is good to have people who love you and understand what we are going through. Good luck to everyone and I will pray for everyone in here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
