Guest guest Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 I am Harold - that is why my doc has me on Arava instead of methotrexate. Can't say if it's the daily wine that is helping or the Arava - I'll stick with the wine just in case!

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Sounds good to me! I'm all for research! For how long do we have to do this? Can we add chips or pretzels to the table?
