Guest guest Posted March 26, 2005 Report Share Posted March 26, 2005 Hi Sharon... I was also taken off MTX...because of my liver enzymes being elevated. It didn't help me much anyway. I had to go every week for months to check that the enzymes were getting back to normalagain. My ast is always out of the normal range because of my r/a but my alt was high (about 2-3 x what it should have been) and now back within normal. I worry about that with all the meds we take for our r/a. I always worry when i have to give blood that they will find something else. What is new??? I have been on Humira and that is giving me mouth sores...and a sore on my foot has taken weeks to heal but it is healed now after being off the Humira and drinking lots of water. The dr is always telling em to drink more water. I was given presnisone 5 mg to take in place of Humira. It seems to make me feel a little bit better but i've heard you should be on it long. I know a lot of you are on pred... a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
