Pharmaceutical Guinea Pigs
I feel like a guinea pig, switching medicines that treat the symptoms but NO CURE. And I am so thankful for them. But, does anyone know what pharmaceutical companies or scientists my be actually working on a cure?
Do not take alive or I ,b withmethexate it interacts with the medicine my doc put me on Tylenol with a dose mylianta your doctor should told you inner acts with methexate.
Have been on methotrexate going on 1 year with some relief but I do think diet and weather effect my pain level. Tylenol extra strength helps sometimes. I find it difficult to relax but when I can I do feel better, doing jigsaw puzzles is a good distraction sitting ins sunny window . I am 80 years old and lost my husband 4 years ago and diagnosed 2 years ago so just keep plugging!
Hi JK,
Will you share a diet thar works for you? Also, I have my first appointment with "pain management" this coming Tuesday. I don't know what to expect. Have you been prescribed medical Marijuana in the past? What was your experience? I am on weekly injection of Methotrexate, just had my 5th shot. I've been told by my rheumatologist not to take ibuprofen or aleve, but I still do or the pain is way too bad. So, I was referred to pain management. Thank you for listening. I have to stop talking about this pain and how it's affecting my life to everyone. SA
