ELBOW PAIN | Arthritis Information

OMG, I am in sooooo much pain. I can't hardly stand it. Both my elbows, wrists and hands hurt sooo bad I could cry.

I'm gonna call RD tomorrow and up my pred, hope he's in the office. If not, I'm upping it myself. I'm beyond miserable. Everytime I pick up one of the kids I nearly cry.

OK, I'm done, just want someone to feel sorry for me

I do feel sorry for you.....I have been there! It will pass, just remember, it will pass!!! I hope you have a good night, and wake up in the morning with easier pains...

I called my RD today, he upped my Pred from 10 to 30 mg/day for about three days, then back down to 20 mg/day and gradually decrease it. He also increased my mtx from 10mg/week to 15 mg/week. He wants to add Enbrel, but I'm waiting to hear back from the foundation because I can't afford it on my own.

Anyhow, hopefully this will help. Thanks for everyones support!!!

Have a great thanksgiving!!!
