i am beginning to think my doctors are out to get me. so the cimzia is out the window. i did my first injection of methotrexate on wednesday morning. it only cost me 5 dollars and the needles are 5 dollars. soooooo much more affordable than remicade or cimzia.

my doc put me on the fentanyl patch for pain management. i am on the lowest dosage to start. if it helps i will continue to use it, but if it doesnt we will work on finding hte right dosage for me. so far it has helped!

but now..ugh. this is the part that makes me so sad. my OB called today about my hysterectomy. he mulled it over and now he wont do it. he says i am too young and is instead referring me to a pain management doctor who specializes in endometriosis. i feel so hopeless. i am already on a pain management plan with the patch; what more can they do? the hysterectomy was supposed to be my way of avoiding long-term narcotic use. he told me he unerstood i dont want children and that taking everything out is the best option for me. and now i feel so let down. i dont know what to do. i can only hope the pain management helps along with the methotrexate.
