Okay. So, Thursday my Rheumy took me off MTX because of the nausea & weight loss & started me on Sulfasalazine, which I had an allergic reaction to. Friday, after having obviously stopped the Sufasalazine, he started me on Plaquenil. I have had a horrific headache since I started on the Plaquenil not mention nausea & itching. So, I called my Rheumy back again today and told him what was going on, and I finally asked about the injectable MTX. He said that he thought that was a good thing to try next, seeing as I did not tollerate the Sulfasalazine or Plaquenil. Wow...you've had a tough time with the medication!
Have a good flight(hope you're not too stiff after the 8 hours) and good luck with the injectable mtx!! I hope it works for you
So, I am starting on the injectable MTX (& back on 2 mg of folic acid) tonight. Thanks to so many of you that suggested that in the 1st place.
