Guest guest Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 Well ... I saw my Rheumy today. I've been on sulfasalazine for about 7 weeks. I have minor improvement with morning stiffness, but the pain in my hands, elbows, & shoulders has gone from a dull pain to a sharp pain and fatigue is still kicking my booty. Fatigue is more of a factor than the pain even. I often find myself sitting and crying because I'm so exhausted. I will start mtx tomorrow. I've read all the papers and websites I could find about it and the side effects, but I wanted to ask y'all what your experiences have been. I've not had luck with plaquinel and minimal help with the sulfasalazine. I'm a little worried about starting the mtx, but I think it's more because I'm afraid it wont work either than it is because of what it is. Thanks!
