Way to go Radley👍

That is a relatively low dose so great you are getting such benefit. If things change you have lots of treatment options.

I too have PA. Now on biological therapy having started on sulfazalizine then methotrexate. All the best with work.

I must have read your story a million times praying that this is the way my story goes as I am so so desperate and so utterly depressed with all that I am experiencing. Seeing the rheumy on Wednesday as I rang up in tears saying I couldn't cope waiting. I'm so so desperate to be diagnosed and get a steroid shot and hopefully start methotrexate. I so so hope I get your story xxx
