Guest guest Posted August 23, 2010 Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 I know you guys will all understand. My husband feels horrible for me, but doesn't know what its like having this crappy disease. I was pregnant and on steriods for the entire pregnancy. Before the pregnancy I was just on 6 methotrexate pills. After, I was on 10 pills plus prednisone. The methotrexate that I took on Friday would make me sick and tired all weekend. I would literally not eat and just sleep the whole weekend. That was hard w/ a 2 and 4yr old. So...I tried 10 pills of mtx w/ Enbrel and prednisone. Nothing. Now I'm supposed to try my 2nd shot of Humira on Wednesday, and I still take my prednisone. I swear that the only thing keeping me " going " is the prednisone. It's like I have a window in the middle of the day where I can " function " . I am useless first thing in the morning, and after about 7pm. It's hard when my kids need me, and I can't do much w/ them, because I can't lift them, dress them or bathe them well. Let alone some mornings where I can't do my hair, or I have to get my husband to help me get dressed. It gets better, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
