Hi

I am so sorry to hear that you are in so much pain and that you are suffering. I

have not been on the drugs you listed except for the MTX but my first

inclination would be to contact your doctor's office this morning and tell them

what you are experiencing. They may need to adjust what you are currently taking

or choose to make some changes. Everyone does differently with the various drugs

that they try us on so it is important to let your doc know that you suffering

as you are. Please keep us posted - hang in there. Sometimes it takes a little

time to adjust to a drug, too. Make that call! We're here for you!

As I posted a few days ago, I am new to this, and I am suffering something awful

for the past 2 days.

I am currently taking Methotrexate, Arthrotec (sp), methylprednisolone (Medrol),

Folic Acid and Darvocet N.

I also?received a 160ml. Depo-Medrol injection on Monday.

I have only had 1 dose of Methotrexate. ...and that was Wednesday.

I have hurt so bad yesterday and today, I have barely been able to get around

the house.? I am running low grade fever and sweating like a dog.?

I do not know what to do.

I do not know how to relieve the pain.

And I do not know what is causing the fever or the sweating.

Any information or suggestion is very much appreciated.
