Sooo I’ve been on Sulfasalazine just over a week now and generally things are going well. I’ve had the steroid injections into both knees ... the thing is that my right knee feels quite amazingly different and well but my left knee is much the same as before but without the ‘turning to boulders’ feeling.
Is it normal for one knee to get much better than the other? I’ve also woken up this morning feeling like I have bruised the top joint of one of my fingers. This is a new symptom.
I am now one week in to a dropped dose to 18.5 pred without any apparent effects. Going down to 18 tonight.
I’m just worried about this left knee/leg. It is the one I fell badly on a year and a few months ago. Partially tore the PCL and other ligament damage. It’s also the knee they did the arthroscopy on back on Feb 16th this year. It feels like sharp pains in there and especially if I try to walk without my crutches.
Any advice greatly appreciated.
