Guest guest Posted November 25, 2005 Report Share Posted November 25, 2005 Tim, Just getting to some of the posts. Hope you've made a decision, but thought I'd just tell you that I was also very concerned about the meds. Methotrexate was concerning, but Enbrel was even moreso for me, since that's " newer " and so I figured the " known dangers " are probably less reliable. However, Enbrel worked miracles on my hands and neck. I've been off both due to a sinus infection since May, and the RA is just returning (my energy is horrible and my hands are beginning to hurt and my feet are starting...). Let us know how it goes.

I am scared now to even take these drugs. Methotrexate is one also. What should I do, all this really scares me, Tim __________________________________ - PC Magazine Editors' Choice 2005 http://mail.

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2005 Report Share Posted November 25, 2005 Hope you don't mind me jumping in. I just started on MHR 2.5 every 12 hours. I had a very bad flare up, went on predizone started on 60mg day. It has been two weeks and I still hurt all over, and swelling still bad. I have a sinus infection now. I also have lupus and Fibo. I have been hit back to back with flare ups and server mussel cramps. What is the best meds for this out there? Thank you SidwellRie <ravencache@...> wrote: Tim,Just getting to some of the posts.
