I have just got back from seeing Rheumi, Leflunomide not working, she said give it other four weeks and if there is no improvement I will have to start Sulfasalazine injections as well.
How often do you have the injections? Do you do it yourself? Does it do any good? What are the drawbacks?
I am sick and tired of being in pain, no appetite and feeling gererally miserable.

    I'm on sulphasalzine tablets and have been for ten years now. They keep the psoriasis bit of my PsA at bay but have not touched the arthritis side of things at all. I inject methotrexate and humira but injected sulph is a new one on me! The main thing to remember is that everyone is different in how they tolerate and/or react to the meds but I wish you well and I hope it helps. DD
    Have you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben
