Methotrexate

Hi John, I'm new here also. I'm waiting for baseline bloods and xray with the veiw ( after much concern about taking immune suppressent drugs) to trying Sulfalsalazine, also a disease modifying drug. I'm told it will calm my auto immune and hopefully my joint inflamation. I was told at the clinic that it does not work for evrybody, but they have others drug in their treasure chest. I just need to bite the bullet and try. Still need 2 weekly blood tests for the first three months, for liver and kidney function, which is scary to hear. However a local Phamarsist tells me that he he issues it on a regular basis, so I assume there are people out there it must be working for.

Keep in touch, I'll let you know how things go with me.

Take care, Nfk gal
