Seronegative RA been taking Leflunomide since December 2022 when diagnosed. Last 4 months have been horrible like the medication stopped working. Starting methotrexate with the Leflunomide in hopes of helping. Anyone with these combinations?

Hi CynDie, good to hear you are feeling better. These meds affect each of us differently. Happy Easter to you 🐣

Thank you Veronica it’s been about 3 weeks and 3rd dose of methotrexate @ 15 mg once weekly still taking the Leflunomide @ 20 mg daily and rheumatologist says I can cut back to 10 mg daily. I am doing much better my top of my feet and bottom of my feet were both so painful 😓 felt like they were broken and both hands were extremely painful. I am not pain free but I am functioning and able to tolerate my work day. I get so frustrated 😩 being seronegative my bloodwork never shows anything major. I hope all finds you well sorry the Leflunomide did not work for you I started it Dec of 2022 and then about 2 months ago the inflammation and pain came back so bad. . Have a wonderful weekend
