Bumpy ride ahead

5 Replies

I have had problems following my taking MTX. It is giving me asthma problems and headaches.

I contacted my Rheummy team and am now to stop taking MTX. The Rheummy is sending me for a hand scan.

I am on 7.5 steroids, I can't put them up as it will mask my hands and so I anticipate a bit of a bumpy ride ahead.

All I can take is codeine or Tramadol so I think I may take up residence in Wacky Land.

Let's hope that we get the scan through soon.

Hoping you get the scan soon, are you off the mtx just for now, if not, what do they plan to give you instead. X

No idea. I suppose that they will cross that hurdle when we get there. I only hope that I get back to Rheummy before my next scheduled appointment in July!!
