hey all
we are all on so many meds its hard to tell what causes what, I know... but anyone get a rash on Arava? a red bumpy kind that itches? I think it makes my "guts" hurt too... anyone? It helps my joints so I dont want to stop it but I cant take MTX... doh!
What is your dosage and how long have you been on it? It could be side effects that will wear off as you get use to the meds. If it continues or gets worse call the dr right away. I can't take mtx either and am on arava, I haven't had any problems, but everyone is different. Call your dr and talk to him, or her. memehi
I have been on Arava for years... I wonder if it was from restarting recently it after having to stop it for a week or so from being really sick. I hear that can happen from stopping and starting Remicade... so maybe with the other meds... I will have to ask of course. Its nice to brainstorm here. We are on so many meds its hard to tell. They say 95% of rashes dont get the culprit identified... only what kind of rash it is... doh!
Good luck to all out in RA land!
