Cindi, there have been problems in the manufacturing of Methotrexate injectable.

I don't know of anyone (except you) who has been able to get it lately.

I am in Texas and no problems getting MTX injectable here either. Its the

normal liquid with preservative. I talked to pharmacist on Friday...as my doc

is contemplating starting MTX again. He claims its in short supply and he

is only doing one month at a time. When I was on it I was getting three month

supply at a time.

Sad to say I have two bottles of it that expired and I will have to throw in

the trash along with 13 weeks of enbrel that the mixing solution as also

expired. I tried getting the enbrel mixing solution replaced but they wanted

to

send it to my old insurance plans mail order pharmacy which I don't deal

with anymore....so it too will go into the trash. I am not going through

changes to try to get a prescription out of my doc so they can send it to local

pharmacy.

Cindi, and Pat and others... The reason I can't get MTX is because all the

pharmacies, including the hospital, are under contract to purchase meds only

from their supplier, and cannot go outside for meds. That's the reason we

can't get it. It seems to me that the contract should have an escape clause

in these circumstances. I posted the other day about it but guess no one saw

it or paid attention to it. I don't know what will happen to me when I stop

taking it, but I guess I'll find out the hard way. I just can't afford to

pay $32-35 and drive 40 miles one way for only 3 weeks supply.

Yesterday was my 61st birthday and I wanted my wife and I to go out for

breakfast on the trike, something we haven't done for a couple of years, but

couldn't leave the house, let alone get the trike out. I had 9 Clinoril tabs

from last year that I was taken off of because of 'elevated' kidney

something. I started taking them last night and was able to get up and

around earlier than I have in a long time. I'm going to insist that my

rheumy do something or I'll have to check with the VA for an option, like

Ken is doing. There must be a better life in our bodies than sitting at home

waiting for who-knows???

I was able to get it up until a few months ago, when others were

complaining about not getting it. I miss the shots! Somewhere, maybe

here I read something that hopefully we will get it again by June or

July.

Take care, Peggy
