Hi all, went to the Rhumy yesterday and I have to stay on the Remicade, this is an increased amount and my 2nd infusion for that. 6 intotal. Next appointment in one month. I'm to increase the methotrexate from 15 to 20 mgs a week in the hopes that I can get off of the prednisone!! Going from 10 mgs of pred to 9 today and the rest of the week, then 8 and so on until zero.( My favorite number!!) He said the remi would fix my hurting left foot bottom, my elbow that clicks, and my swollen fingers.
wish me luck, sarah
Good Luck!!! Hope you come off that prednisone!!!!
Hi Sarah,
I hope this new idea works for you! I am due for my infusion on Friday and even though it doesn't work brilliantly I still can't wait for it - this week is a tough week, I feel like I could just sleep straight through 'til Friday but I have so much work to do! Off to put a pot of coffee on now so I can do a little more studying this afternoon. I hope you're feeling better soon.
