Subject: The familiar aches & pains after 2 years of normality :-(
So, in short...was on mtx & hydroxychloroquine, came off the mtx So now just on hydroxy, I ran out & didnt take for a couple of days, I can now feel the famiiar muscle pain in the tops of my arms & legs Worried its coming back but hoping its because I missed a few pills but surely they cant wear off that quick? Keeping my fingers crossed!

hi karen , not been on hydroxychloroquine myself but dont think missing couple pills will make that much differance , why did you come off Mtx ? its a good drug if you can stand it , high dose folic acid helps with a lot of the side effects if your problems last after you are back on hydroxychloroquine , would talk to your rheumy nurse , they tend to know more than the GP's & can talk to the consultant easy hope you feel better soon
