Hi all

Does anyone take this drug; if so could you share how you get on with it and if it impacts on your CMT.

Thank you in advance:)

Sorry, I can't help. You're talking about the using it for rheumatoid arthritis. I'm not taking any drugs apart from pregabalin for nerve pain and ibuprofen for general pain relief. I use heat packs for sore muscles and massage. Maybe my pain isn't bad enough yet Sorry

I'm talking about taking it for Sjogrens. It's to treat stiffness caused by inflammation, and fatigue over and above any caused by CMT. I don't take any painkillers apart from OTC for headaches etc. My major concern is how the drug might impact on the nerve and muscle weakness I already have.

Not what you're looking for?
