steroid mg's
For those of us that are still on high strength Pred, what mg are you taking per tablet. My sister in-law who lives in Spain and sometimes has to take them for her Rheumatoid Arthritis has been prescribed them at 30 mg per tablet...I've been having to swallow eight tablets at a time (5 mg's each), surely

Shielding from Virus?
I have rheumatoid arthritis and I am taking Sulphasalazine, does this mean I have to shield myself from this virus? I have not received any letter. I work in a GP surgery on reception and come into contact with a lot of patients. Am I at risk?

Medication Is The Key to Achieving Remission
The most important factor in rheumatoid arthritis remission is early and aggressive treatment with medication that improves or alleviates symptoms and halts the progression of the disease, says Dr. Greer. Although RA drugs do have side effects, the repercussions of the disease are generally much worse
