severe/longstanding disease

[Guest guest]

Hi again-

I am pretty much having to navigate AP on my own and tell my Dr.'s what

to do...so I need some advice. I have had RA for the past six

years...flaring on and off. I started AP, and started with just oral

mino because my Doc. doesn't think the injections are necissary, and

she is just humoring me anyway. She also said she thinks just the oral

will work since I wasn't in a severe flare when I began AP. I am

wondering if I need to persue injections because I have had RA so long,

or will just the oral therapy be enough? I am in a bad flare now,

possibly a herx, and am wondering if injections could be helpful.

Thanks in adance for any advice.
