    Unfortunately, it looks like you probably do. I hope things improve as they did with the lower dose.
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

    Over my arthritic years trying different meds has been the norm, it's a matter of trial and error, in my case too many errors and always a trial. :wink: Rather than tackle the PsA some meds have preferred to attack my liver (enbrel), made me hairy (cyclosporin), made me fatter with a moon-face and thin my bones (oral steroids), given me blinding headaches (leflunomide). The current combo is controlling the disease very well but I do not feel any physical benefit whatsoever. Hey-ho,. you lose some then you lose some more. :wink:

    Stick with it, Mama, because otherwise you won't know for sure whether this is your magic wand. If it isn't then it's on to the next one . . . . DD
