I got my Bloodtest back today and was stunned at how much the Values went up. CCP-250 from 60 in March, CRP- 0.81 (0.80 is normal), Ra factor 109 up from 36 in March. I went to my Rheumy and she said it will be ok once the MTX kicks in. Which I hope will be soon. I have been on it for 6 weeks now. She also upped my Pills from 5 to 6 a week. I am off Prednisone right now because Dr. gave me a Kenolog Shot last week. That's probably why I am not in a lot of pain right now. I go back at the end of August.

Hi bigiblue, hope that you are feeling okay this weekend. I know that it's hard to be patient when you're feeling so bad, but hang in there. I've been on MTX since April, and it's only been since the last 2 weeks that I can say that I feel better. And that's after many years of being in a constant flair.
Take care!
