Just got back from the docs after loading up with more scripts.
Asked how my last bloods went and he gave me the last five months.
12/07 - 16.3
01/08 - 15.5
02/08 - 44 Tried to back off MTX from 20 to 15mg. Didn't work
03/08 - 11.1
04/08 - 9.1 Back into the normal range
This is the first time I have had the CRP levels in the normal since getting this thing.
Now I am meant to be starting Humira in the hope of getting off the pred 5mg and cutting back on the MTX.
Humira is in the fridge but gee, I feel pretty good and the latest bloods suggests I'm good.
Hope I don't bugger up the routine.
I've put these figures up so people can compare or for the newbies to check.
It's good to see that you're back to normal. Hope the Humira goes well for you. Is this your first biologic?
[QUOTE=Linncn] Is this your first biologic?[/QUOTE] Yes it is.
Good luck I hope it all works out.I'm so glad your blood work is getting there...my fingers are crossed for you too - upsetting the applecart can be real scary here.
ESR that rings a bell.
Thinking he said that was good as well.
Found it
ESR 2 (0-15)
Yep, that's good.
