Guest guest Posted November 29, 2008 Report Share Posted November 29, 2008 I started my MTX last night. Thanks to all the kind words & advice, I wasn't as nervous & felt more educated going into it. My Dr is starting me with 3 pills/wk + 1mg Folic Acid daily to start + my 10mg of prednisone. Once she sees how my body reacts, she will probably increase the MTX & decrease the prednisone (I hope). Anyway, its been almost 24 hrs since I took them & so far just tired (although I don't think its more than normal) so - YAY Thanks for all your support!!! Question for all those on Prednisone - does your body get used to it? When I first started, I was in Heaven - pain free & full of energy. This lasted for about 2 weeks & now I'm back to stiffness, pain & tired - not as bad as before, but its starting to creep back. I really don't want to go on a higher dose, but is Prednisone one of those drugs that stops working unless adjusted higher regularly? Hope everyone has a pain free weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
