Subject: Results from hospital (fed up)

Hi gals well had my appointment back at the hospital again today and not great news unfortunately. Well my esr levels have gone up again after coming down and im still anemic , so now they have upped my salfasalazine and i have to go back in 3 months and if no change, then they are proberly gonna try me on the mtx or hydroxychloroquine anyone know anything about that one not heard of it b4. I feel really sad that things were starting to improve and now feel like ive taken 2 steps back. I understand that things take time and i need to be on the right medication for me but he said im still in a flare up so basically ive been in a flare up for 6 months is this normal?? sorry to moan girls im sure ill be fine just ache everywhere today from neck downwards and ive got really bad period pains today as well so heavy sorry guys :). anyway hope everyone is not to bad i think the weathers going to be better over the weekend hope so always lifts the spirit.

Hi Della..... ((huggs 4 ya) yea that is about normal im afraid, especailly your first one....once this one goes, it will get better, but the next flare up, and there will be one, as u know, but that nxt flare up will be far far less.....MTX is great idea, dont know that other one..... soz, but things will get better, and far less flare ups in shorter time spans... as time goes on.... stick at it....stay pos....xxx
