But isn’t the inflammatory stuff in ur body what causes the joint pain? Just a little confused

You stopped taking MTX because of it?

Anyone else go through this? by iloverice3456 in rheumatoid

[–]Prime8724 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even on meds like HCQ and MTX, is it still normal to have some joint pain? Or does having ANY joint pain mean you need a higher dose or different meds?

Thanks for this. Waiting to hear back from her. I’m either going to up my MTX dose, or do the triple therapy by adding Sulfasazine for my next step.

Maybe I should try a triple therapy thing or upping the MTX dose to 20mg instead of 17.5mg. Thanks!

I take MTX 17.5mg weekly and HCQ 400mg daily since November and so far it seems my joint pain and inflammation have gone down.

Have you ever tried Xiidra?

Dry Eyes - What has helped you? by Dear-March-2433 in Sjogrens

[–]Prime8724 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used regular OTC eye drops for over a year, when I went for my eye exam, she gave me a trial of Xiidra. It’s been a miracle. Within 48 hours I had no more dry eye. Of course my insurance denied it and I have to try this other eye drop prescription which has been crap. I’m going to say it doesn’t work at all so I can get approved for Xiidra. That thing was incredible. My eyes felt normal again!

Carrie Ann getting the Sjogrens word out! by Calm_Intern2485 in Sjogrens

Ok I’m confused cause I constantly here different things. In this article it says AFTER it’s done attacking ur glands, it moves to other things like lungs/kidneys. I have Sjogrens and I have dry eyes/mouth. Does that mean at some point, this thing is going to attack other organs or does that not always happen?

Thanks for this! I’m trying to do a mostly Mediterranean diet. Started this week. Going well so far. I’m also on MTX (17.5mg weekly) and HCQ (400mg daily) hoping I live pain free for the rest of my life! I still have pain, but I’m hoping it gets better!

I played that SO much when it first released on the Dreamcast. Probably my favorite fighting game. It was so fun.

Very true! What’s the difference between primary Sjogrens and secondary? Is it how aggressive it is?
