Your 2 problems are very different in causes, but both result in erosion of the joints and pain.
One difficulty is that many of the newer medications such as remicade and enbrel are most effective for patients who are younger and recently diagnosed. This is because it can only prevent further damage frmo happening and if it's already happened, it can't heal that.
I had earlier also stressed that when methotrexate is stopped,other medicines are started.These medicines are chosen such that they have no adverse effects on the RA as well as on the fetus.Pregnancy in RA is a very high risk case and the gynecologist that she will be consulting and the treating hospital should have all knowledge and facilities for high risk preganancy respectively.
I am facing burning feet and shin while sitting since last 5 years. My NCS, RA Factor, ANA, ESR are normal. I have taken variety of medicines including Dulan, ronirol, tegral, prothyadine, cipralex, epival cr 500, sensival 25 etc. but my problem is still not resolved. During this problem i started walk which increased the problem. However, during walk i feel very normal i.e. no painful burning sensation, i feel. This is important that when i lay down i donot feel pain.
I have one more question to you, well,as I saw in your profile you are mother, how old are your children and do they have some diagnose connected with RA, because we have one child he is very young only one year, for now everything is ok with him, but I am scared because this is inherited disease. I haven given birth to him before my husband got sick.
Can you tell me also, do the medicines that patient take like corticosteroids, sulfasalasine , affect the fetus?
Hello, I am a 45 yr old female 2007 I have recurring symptoms swollen with burning at times in knees,fingers, toes, elbows sometimes neck and shoulders I have been taking Prednisone off and on since 2007. Now I take it consistently. My primary has ordered blood test for RA, lupus, ms,gout and other things. All the test came back several times negative for these things.
I started taking it against what my family dr said, but my RA specialist said you have nothing to loose, I took it for approximately 3 years and all my liver enzyme readings have gone to normal. I have been off of milk thistle for at least one and half years and my readings are all normal.. It may have been all my strong meds that affected the liver, but milk thistle repaired it.....read for yourself on the net about it and give it a try.
Based on my own personal experience I would avoid the Tikosyn and the Flecainide based on experiences that I have had, however everyone responds differently and its important that you and your doctor maintain dialog about what works and what does not work for you. I have been in Afib for 3 years straight now and I have also been on Warfarin for that same period of time.
