Does your hair fall out? Mines falls out all the time, but not from the root, its like it breaks. My hairdresser could tell I was on new meds.
Quite a combination being on both MTX and Sulph. I couldn't tolerate MTX in neither tablet form or injecting. 7 months of torture when I was on it. It took over my life. I'm really hoping its the new meds thats helping me and not still the steroid injection I got when I started them!
Yes I had long thick hair and my hairdresser said it’s getting thinner.But I’ve noticed when I brush or wash it how much I’m losing.It was very dry now it seems to be getting back to normal But still losing I’m hoping it stops soon x
My rheumi is considering putting me on sulfasalazine and gave me a leaflet on it. It says you should contact your doctor if you have unexplained bruising so think you should probably get it checked. Hope all goes well, Neannie
Yes, I had a noticeable skin reaction, almost as if the skin on my face had been burnt. I have a peanut allergy and my rheumy had warned me I might have an allergic reaction. I left it alone and it calmed down, but I seem to have eczema on hands and face now since I've been on it.
