what a week!

[Guest guest]

First, thank you all for your responses to my recent post on methotrexate....

I took my first dose friday night, woke up saturday feeling horrible. I was

nauseated and vomiting most of the day... I luckily have phenergan in my fridge

and was able to use that, but it didn't take it all away. Sunday morning I woke

up a little better, but not by much, I slept the day away...

On monday morning, I called my rheumy and let him know what the weekend had been

like for me...I wasn't sure if this was a normal response or not. He said, 10

years ago, he would have told me to give it another shot, but now there are

other meds on the market, so next we are going to try Humira... he told me that

after it starts working, I'll feel like I've never had RA, I don't believe a

word of it, lol... I can't see one drug making me feel " normal " again. It's been

years since I've felt anywhere near normal anyway. Maybe I'm not giving him

enough credit or maybe he's giving himself too much, but I guess we'll just have

to give it a try....

Does anyone else here suffer with migraines? It seems that when I'm having a bad

pain day, I get a killer migraine, not sure if there is any correlation. My

migraines come in different levels. I constantly have a low grade headache, 2-3

times a week I get a sick to my stomach, wow that light's bright migraine, and

2-4 times a month, I get the headache that makes me vomit, and pass out, and

stutter does anyone else go through this with their RA?

I hope everyone is enjoying themselves and having pain free days. take care of

yourselves and God bless.
