I'm currently taking 50ml of methotrexate 0.8 (injections) and plaquenil 200mg twice a day, and folic acid every day. And I'm on a 21 day 4mg of steroids. There are days that the pain is unbearable!

[Matilda_1922 in reply to AngelinaCedillo50]

That’s a lot I’m takin 0.4 20mg weekly. I wouldn’t be able to increase any further. I’m always nauseas and have increased fatigue for a day or 2 after the week injection

[AngelinaCedillo50 in reply to Matilda_1922]

I understand about being tired and fatigue! I have flare-ups, like Lupus. I was approved through my insurance for long-term remittance, so I won't lose my job.

I am so uncomfortable when I lie in bed I have been in agony with my shoulders now my neck over the past 3 days my fight is also going. Trying to get an appointment with the doctor can’t get through. I have had RA since 2013 I am on The usual drugs but tried missing them for three weeks never again !! Hope you feel better soon.

[Matilda_1922 in reply to Roseposie123]

The last few weeks I have found it uncomfortable to sleep my shoulders are really painful when I lay on my side

[AngelinaCedillo50 in reply to Matilda_1922]

My spouse keeps asking me how am I feeling. All I can say is that I Hurt!!!!!

[AngelinaCedillo50 in reply to Roseposie123]

Girl, me too! I emailed my boss around 4pm, to inform her that I will not be in tomorrow morning. I'm sitting on the couch as we speak! Shoulders, hips, neck, and my arms are killing me!

[Roseposie123]

At least I am not on my own with the pain I too am sitting on the couch with nothing on my mind except pain .

[AngelinaCedillo50 in reply to Roseposie123]

Amen!!! I feel you.. I hope you find a good RA Doctor.

[Dixiedeane147]

Oh dear Sylvia 😔 Please do rest up as much as possible. I know it can be frustrating for you, having to limit yourself even more in what you can do. But you must rest. You have the help & support of your family, & also support from us lot.

In other words STOP WHAT YOUR DOING ✋

Take care x

[sylvi]

It is so nice(maybe not the right word,but you get what i am trying say) that i am not alone. We must all vow to keep resting,instead of keep dancing(from strictly) we should keep saying keep resting. My love to you all and hugs and lets all hope these nasty horrible things go away.xxxxx

[Roseposie123]

Just got back from the Doctors it was a good job my husband was home I could not have driven. Now on steroids for a week. Take care everyone Sylvia is right we must rest more x

[Doughnut61]
