MTX & Sjogren's | Arthritis Information

Share
 

I've been on MTX for a couple of weeks now and feel really, really lucky that I'm getting some relief from my RA symptoms (swelling, pain, fatigue, etc).  So, now I'm starting to wonder if I'll see any improvement in my dry eye problem (Sjogren's).  I haven't worn contact lenses since I was diagnosed with RA - my eyes dried out basically overnight.  Has anyone with Sjogren's had an improvement in their symptoms when they went on methotrexate??  TIA!HI joywpa.

 
I can't say that I had any improvement w/ the MTX......Not with enbrel either....
 
Sorry.. topical meds are all that work.. eye drops.. water .. saline solution.. nasal wash.. etc..
