Subject: doctors appointment...

On my Gps advice I started pregabalin 2 days ago and am feeling a bit off balance this morning. Im taking this one specifically for my fibro in the hopes it will help with my constant pain. im hoping it does because then in a way i will feel relife that it isnt all RA pain and that maby the RA isnt as bad as it seems (maby thts wishfull thinking)!
I was also telling my GP about problems im having with periods (they are comming every 35-55 days) so with that he looked up MTX and confirmed that it can cause menstral disturbances. I am still getting pains in my joints ect so my doc asked if my rumy has discussed biologicals with me!!!
now i was quite supprised but he thinks my rummy should be doing more and that i should be moaning to my rummy more.
Now i do feel that my rummy doesnt have the time of day for me during appointments and they last no longer thatn 10 min. so i can see his point.
he recons the biologics would help me vastly in the future. Im only 24 and have a young family so maby hes looking at my age and how bad i am now and thinking that in 20-30 years i could be even worse!
what do you all think? should i push to discuss biologics?
