Leflunomide and possible nerve damage?
Has anyone had nerve damage in their feet whilst on
Leflunomide
? I was taken off it 3 months ago in case it was the cause. So far haven't noticed any change but I think maybe it takes longer to get out of ones system. I'd be interested to hear of anything similar.

Should I just accept things will keep getting worse?
I was diagnosed three and a half years ago, in that time I have been prescribed at different times MTX, hydroxychloroquine,
Leflunomide
, Prednisolone, Steroid injections, Humira and Infliximab. Also in that time I have deteriorated steadily whatever was given to me.

Leflunomide ....not for me
So I've been on
Leflunomide
since early April and I can safely say I may as well be drinking water for my RA. My pain was already quite bad along with increasing side effects of nausea, fatigue and hairloss when my rheumatologist suggested lowering the dose to 15mg.

stomach problems
I've had stomach problems with steroids as well and
Leflunomide
. I still keep getting nausea, acid reflux and an irritable stomach worse at times. I've had to take Naprosyn again over the last week and now my stomach is really bad.

Any advice on taking Leflunomide.. I have never taken this medication in the past and I will be taking it in a month or so's time.
Can anyone give me any advice with their experiences with this medication. I took Methotrexate a few years ago and eventually it affected my liver but I really need to try something else again to get off these steroids . My Rheumatologist has agreed to this but I have to wait to start it as i have to

Anyone on Leflunomide 15mg?
I was prescribed the 15mg dose by my rheumatologist last Tuesday due to side effects at 20mg but I'm still waiting for my GP to issue the prescription. My GP says the drug is only available in 10mg or 20mg but I've looked it up and it's now also available in 15mg. This is so frustrating as I'm currently

I really, really, really miss my booze :-(
Then along came
Leflunomide
and the big label saying "DO NOT DRINK ALCOHOL". Why when the drug was mentioned to me did nobody tell me this? I have to admit I'm finding my enforced dry life a bit depressing.

Hi, just another newbie
Then he prescribed
Leflunomide
, which after only two pills made my stomach hurt and hair fall out. Now I am (still) on Minocycline/Methylpred. I still have flares, stiffness and pain, but no more morning crying, and I understand that this therapy takes time to work.

leflunomide has started to make me feel sick
I have been on
Leflunomide
for 2 weeks. To start with I felt really tired but no other problems. Then yesterday morning my stomach felt a bit rough. It wore off, but today it has been bad all day. I haven't been able to eat properly and have nausea and feel weak and washed out.

Anyone had a failed rotator cuff surgery? Did they suggest a reverse replacement and has anyone had one done? Did that fix the pain?
This is all getting me down, Im usually not too bad with accepting bad outcomes (they do happen a lot) but Ive just gone off the prednisone,
Leflunomide
and MTX Im in a horrible place painwise which makes me feel even worse.

Oh how stupid!
I picked up my
Leflunomide
on Saturday and popped it into the glove compartment of my husbands car. Today he went to London on business and guess where my pills are? Hmphh. Guess I'll just miss a dose and carry on tomorrow night.
