Hi everyone,
Went to see the reummy today and guess what, he says that MTX doesn't cause sweating :shock:

You and I both know that MTX DOES cause excessive sweating!!

So now what???

Could someone please give me a clue? :?

    It might be your arthritis causing the excessive sweating.

    When my RA is active I get god-awful night sweats which are just because there is uncontrolled inflammation running rampant through my body. This also causes hot flushes during the day too. Once my RA was under control the sweats stopped.

    Hi,
    According to todays blood test results, I have no inflammation - so it cant be that!

    Although I've had RA since the age of 1, I have to admit, I am sooooo confused!!! :?
