Guest guest Posted May 22, 2001 Report Share Posted May 22, 2001 janet i have a question for you, i have ask you before about pete and his hearing prolems.,but i was wondering when they test his hearing, which sounds is he losing. high tones or low tones. i had my hearing tested and they said i am loosing low tones, and the is very odd. but i have ask a couple of others in the group with rp and they too have lost the low tones. dawn --- Baaboo19@... wrote: > In a message dated 05/22/2001 10:19:36 PM Eastern > Daylight Time, > angerhob@... writes: > > > > they take the methotrexate. > > Hi- Pete was on methotrexate for 2 years...the only > side effect he had was > hair loss when he went to 25mg a week...he switched > to imuran last year in > hopes he could come down on the pred.

Guest guest Posted May 27, 2001 Report Share Posted May 27, 2001 Janet, Forgive me, I must be having a brain fog..But Is Pete on Enbrel too? Or does he just take the Imuran? I need to make me a list to keep handy because I forget what meds everyone is on. How did Pete do on the Imuran? Is he still on it? Is it working, and what dosage is it? Sorry for all the questions. But you know I was so sick on the metho, its a no no for me. I am on Imuran right now, and I have been able to come off PRED. Thank goodness. When you can will you let me know... Thanks! Love you Lu > ...he switched to imuran last year in > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 27, 2001 Report Share Posted May 27, 2001 Thanks Glenda, I've got to have some more labs done to make sure everything is a okay. He increased it to 100mgs. and that makes me sick like the metho did, but not as bad. I'm hoping I will get use to it. Love u Lu > I am so glad that the Imuran is working for you!

Speaking of which I better get my butt in there and take it! > Good night all and hope you have a great Memorial day tomorrow! > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 28, 2001 Report Share Posted May 28, 2001 Lu, I am so glad that the Imuran is working for you! I hope you do as well on it as I do. Speaking of which I better get my butt in there and take it! Good night all and hope you have a great Memorial day tomorrow!

My high tones are withing normal range, but i lost the low tones. Of course it's odd, it's RP! Love, Judy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
