Guest guest Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 Hello, I saw my rheumy today and she suggested I try Imuran for my RA. (anyone have comments on that?) I asked about Minocycline (antibiotic) and she said it would be fine to try it. I picked up the RX today and will gvie it wa whirl. I feel mildly excited. I also got my first cortisone shot and am proud to report that I took it like a woman! Not a whimper. I also got the X-rays I wanted. It felt like a fruitful visit. My husband accompanied me, and I think I got slightly better care just because there was an " observer " present. (My rheumy's nurse held back on her personal talk, which was nice. I really don't want to hear any more about her dream of becoming a professional bowler...) I'll let you know how things go. I hear that it can be a bit rough in the beginning--RA patients on the antibiotic protocol feel worse before they feel better.
