I think I am paying the price for the night out last night!
Went to a friend's 60th birthday party last night and was dancing the night away until midnight - not late by most people's standards I suppose, but late for me! Was beginning to have aches in arms and legs by the end and woke with various joint pains this morning! The pains were coming back anyway -

Steroid injection doesn't seem to have kicked in!
Hi, I got a Depo-Medrone injection over a week ago but it doesn't seem to have kicked in. Still in a lot of pain. I am on Methtrexate 17.5 mg. Saw the rheumy nurse last week who gave me the injection and said that the rheumatologist should review my medicines. My appointment with the rheumatologist

Does anyone have Autoimmune Hepatitis in addition to RA?
I have had to come off Mxt due to rising liver enzymes, but it looks like that might be a red herring. My liver enzymes were only slightly raised until 7 weeks after stopping the Mxt when they went through the roof! The docs were insisting that the drug was responsible, but they are now querying AIH

Depo medrone (or medrol?) injection
Hello, can anyone tell me how long it could take for this to kick in (had it in my backside) because I understood from the rheumy nurse that it is usually about 24 hours. I am so glad thay gave me one (my first ever) but am desperate to feel relief. Thanks, Julie.

Allergic reaction to Meropenem
I had an allergic reaction to IV Meropenem last week (rash, headache, achey)- looked like I had s[ent 20 years under a sunbed! I am known to be allergic to doxycycline already (although wasn't as bad)- I got very burnt. Does anyone know if these antibiotics are in the same family? It seems to make

Follow up to initial hospital appointment
Had a good meeting with the Rheumatologist at hospital on Tuesday - although only saw her for a few minutes - most of my examination was carried out by a Rheumatology Physio! Have been advised to have a one off injection of Depo-Medrone to hopefully stop the RA from spreading. I have now booked this

Depo-Medrone jab
I had my Depo-Medrone injection at my GP's this afternoon. First thing he asked me was had the hospital given me a needle to bring with me as they don't keep that size in stock! Secondly he had to telephone the Rheumatology department at the hospital because they hadn't told him what doseage to

Newly diagnosed and about to start methotrexate
Hello Everyone, I last posted on here about a month back when I was awaiting a referral to the Rheumatologist. I had the appointment to see the Rheumy Dr a few days after the posting with an appointment date for November 29th!!! I sort of panicked (was in quite a lot of pain) as I thought that the
