Hello All,
I am on my 3rd Remicade and after about a week my ankles
swell really bad. I was on 20 mg of Prednisone but now I am off
of that. I take 100 mg, 2 times a day, Methotrexate (6 tablets)
once a week. I also have restless leg syndrome.
My Rhem factor was 280 when all of this started and it has
climbed up and up. It's up to about 680 now.
Does not seem like anything works.
However, when I have the energy I get on my treadmill for
about 30 minutes. I hate doing it but feel so much better.
My RH started in my hips and they seem fine.
My other concern is that I have gained over 70 pounds in a 1 1/
2 years for being on the prednisone and not much activity.
I am hoping that now I am off of it and I am trying to drag myself
onto the treadmill.
Any suggestions or comments. I would love to hear for any of
you.
Thanks, Cyndi B
