Guest guest Posted June 7, 2009 Report Share Posted June 7, 2009 It seems the time has come where I need to seek other information from the one's who really have the experience. I was diagnosed with RA in June 2008. and since then its been a battle of medications with the end list being, Voltaren, vicodin, prednisone daily and mtx injection once a week. The problem is the nausea lasts for about 3days, is this normal? I've told the doc and she justs shrugs her shoulders and says " yes, are you taking the folic acid? " NO it constipates me I think. Is this it? I still feel only 50% good on a good day!!! I did use the Enbrel but my insurance stopped paying and I cant afford 700.00 a month plus,plus, plus!!!! Thats why she switched me to mtx. Lately I've had very bad feet pain just in walking and standing, so I sought out buying new shoes. I was soo excited when I finally put on a pair that didn't hurt, there called Earth shoes, FABULOUS!!!!! What about homeopathic treatments? Any advice? The doctor laughed when I told her I stopped eating red meat and am watching the high fructose corn syrup intake, anybody hear of this? Any feed back would be nice to hear, I tired of watching what I say around friends, I feel like they think thats all I have to talk about and frankly, being limited, thats all I do have. thanks Newbie.
