Methotrexate a cause for UTI??
I had symptoms of a UTI back in July. Usual procedure followed. Stop Mxt take antibiotics, but it didn't clear up. My GP said that a rare side effect of Mxt is inflammation of the bladder and as urine test didn't show infection it could be my meds. At first rheumatology would have none of it and told

Anyone else have scleroderma en coup de sabre?
Hello everyone - finally had a diagnosis of scleroderma en coup de sable this year after eight years under an MS specialist. Visited the dermatologist today who is trying steroid injections to recover the hair on the patches of alopecia on my scalp. My right eye is sunken due to the loss of fatty tissue

Booster or 3rd Primary?
I am on 20mg MTX and after the first jab was given 2 steroid injections to try to settle a bad flare. Then after the 2nd jab had a 3 week course of steroid tablets. Now I am on MTX plus COSENTYX (biologic) . Notsure if I need 3rd jab and booster, or just booster. Cannot seem to get answer from anyone

How Many ISTS do you have? I'm up to 8!
My journey started with my OrthopedIST that told me āsadly, your knee pain is not a torn meniscus, itās arthritisā. After the pity party was over (and a bottle of wine was consumed) I pulled up my big girl panties and started my new collection ā ISTS! My next appointment was to my new friend, the RheumatologIST

Steroid injection into joint
Last Friday I had a steroid injection directly into my wrist joint. It was very unpleasant but the doctor assured me it would be worth it. Itās been a week now and my wrist is as painful as it ever was. Do I need to give it more time or has it been a waste of time? Iām gutted if it hasnāt worked, I can
