My rheumy took my off the plaq becasue of the all over rash I got. I am hoping that that was the med that caused it 'cause he wants to to take arava and I see that that can also cause a rash. Meds aren't fun.

He was going to check my enzymes next time I go in to make sure that they were fine and if not, take me off... I know a lot of people that plaq was discontinued cause of the liver enzymes being high.

I don't need that since I had a problem before with that.

Some of the things you can do for your liver.

Don't let the bottoms of your feet get cold, when you chill your feet you chill your organs.

Do a liver cleanse, or take a nutritional product that promotes a healthy liver.

Drink lots of water each day to help flush out toxins.

Take digestive enzymes to promote healthy bacteria in the intestines........this is a must when taking all the meds since the meds are so hard on the digestive system.

Eat well and try to eat more small meals rather than a few large meals.

Consider trying to make the main foods fresh fruits and vegetables.

Of course stay away from caffienne and alcohol whenever possible.
