Subject: New Medicine? Please help! +MY story, Teen on Prednisolon,Humira,Methotrexate
Hello. I'm a fourtheen year old girl. But I'm not like most of my friends. They can run, but I can't. They don't need to worry on what time it is, or what day it is. They don't need that exstra rest I need. They don't need taking Thoose medecines, shots , tests and the long hospital visits. But anyway I'm Still a kid. Like doing crazy things , and things I should not do. I like show people what I can do, that even beacuse I have arthritis I can do things. Many of my friends are overprotecting me. They are Afraid for hurting men and yeah really Many just don't know the thrut of 'arthritis'.Ê
But over to MY story ;Ê As little it taked a while Before I began walk I wasen't even crawling i just wriggled forward but anyway I was really fast so maybe I just liked doing it. So I began taking my first steps, and I often was falling,limping,not wanted to use my fot/arm/wrist etc most it happend early on the morning or after special activeties. Going long was a problem, so until i was six/seven I used a stroller as I got older It just wasen't that often.. ÊI also had asthma and a really thuff time as little with that. But anyway I wasen't look sick so thing I think was a bit 'forgetten' .Ê I remember Pain, I don't Now whats like to be without pain.. Starting at school maked me see I was different. And I remember much thing I wasen't able to do everyday. I remember people Asked me 'why? Why,I was running so weird?' 'why I was limping?' I remember the bad pain after walks, but most at all I remember I was afraid for telling people about it.Ê
Was at different doctor's but everyone just was saying "things is normal, Its gonna be fine" I was practis physio.. Into all it I got Psoriatic but everything still was alright. UNTIL
2009, One morning In the summer I Waked up and looked at my knee. I got chock, it was twice as big as the another One. It was painfull,stiff,red,immflammed. But I just thought It would go away told nothing to anyone. Days was going, but Now it was that big at still If I had an throuser you saw it that big knee. Many weeks Before I got Checked it.. Drained. Cortisoneinjected it. After that I've Done it some times..Ê Now all In all 70joints are affected . And I've got the diagnosis Polyarticular juvenile arthritis w psoriatic. Been on mtx,humira,NSAIDs without hell and Yes I Tried the hightest dose and Yes I've tried diet. And no it dosent work. Maybe a bit on my psoriatic (think soo beacuse I don't have it) Humira since february , Mtx since 11 , NSAIDS since the diagnosis (not Now) and prednisolon some times..Ê I'M In and really bad period now! Started prednisolon start of July 20mg (two weeks with lower of the dose ) but lowering just made everything worse. All that 70joints hurted small as big. And nearly all Them was very immflammed (hot,red,big,stiff, painfull..) again on prednisolon after One week stop of it 20mg two weeks Then 15 One week Then 10 (Now) Then 5 and ......
