headaches | Arthritis Information

Hi hoping someone can offer some advice. I have been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis for 15 years, and it has flared up in the last 4 years. Over the past 3 months I have been experiencing bad headaches- it feels like I have a really sore head and it is really getting me down. I'm on nexium and methotrexate. Has anyone else experienced headache symptoms with or without these medications? I am really at my wits end- would like to know if there is some reprieve round the corner.

Thanks

 

MTX and Nexium is known for headaches.   It could be something else you may be taking.  Course then, RA does effect other parts of our bodies.

I added a couple of links that may help you.
