Intro

I have had RA for a little over a year but managed with alkaline water, veggie juicing, and Advil until the pain got to be so much at night that I couldn't sleep. Pain especially in my shoulders and elbows. Went to rheumatoid they she put me on mtx and prednisone. Did ultrasound on my hands and had swelling but no joint damage yet. I have been on mtx a month now and I have felt 100 times worse than I did before. The mtx makes me extremely fatigued and sleep for days even though I'm on only 2 pills a week. I have woken up and not been able to open my hands and not been able to move my elbows. Never had anything close to that happen before. Now I have to nap every day. Didn't have that problem before either. Go back to rheumatoid tomorrow to talk about all this. Not sure what to do.
