Yes diet does matter, have you cut out gluten, dairy, sugar and just about everything that taste good. I had the same talk with my RA doctor about the diet and she said NO of course how would they get business, I ate nothing but salads and water 1 weekend and I could tell the difference. I just cant live off of salads and I love my sweet tea. I bought a program back in march of this year and my RA has gotten pretty bad so I think I'm going to have to start it soon plus I cant afford 300 dollars a month methotraxte google Clint Paddison the Paddison program it you think you got will power. He has youtube videos also.
I have had no trouble with Methotrexate! It has done pretty well, but my RA is severe and I need additional medications. I have been on the Methotrexate since janurary. I've heard it is a very safe and well used drug
Today I take my third dose of methotrexate. I was just diagnosed in July of this year and am 40 years old.
I'm not quite sure how severe my RA is my rheumy never mentioned. I'm on week four of methotrexate. You?
Nice to meet you! How severe is yours? What are your treatments?
