Hi. I’ve just started fairly recently, week seven I believe.
I think it is helping albeit slowly. I was taking Hydroxychloraquine when first diagnosed, but had some side effects, so had to stop that.
I have had a couple of courses of steroids ( the magic tablets) Have you got RA?

Hi shuttle5788
i got mouth ulcers and a rash over my body, and muscle cramps.
I took Hydroxychloraquine for 9 weeks. Have been much better on Sulhazalazine. I was given the steroids to dampen down the inflammation. It’s hard waiting for the meds to kick in. Are you having regular b/t now? I’ve been having bloods done every 2 weeks, but now they are monthly. If you have any tips on helping with the pain please let me know. it is worse for me first thing, and from about tea time onwards. Wake early most mornings, usually getting up for a cuppa. Did you take tablets to keep your tummy stable? I take one every morning.
