Responding to McMicheal Sept.24,2000 P.A progression

[Guest guest]

My P.A came 12 years ago under allot of stress. It has thrown me for a loop

here and there but so far I've kept going. I think it's important to be

aggressive and don't be afraid to try lots of different drugs and don't

miss any doses, whatever your taking. Stay away from alcohol it only makes

it worse for me. My Doc. says the best indication of what the next ten

years will be like is what the last ten years were like. I don't know if

it's true or not but it sounds good to me. I started methotrexate and it

took a couple months to kick in but after that I felt like an 18 year old

again, I'm 37. Unfortunately I had to go off it for awhile and it only

takes a couple weeks to " kick out " .
