Hi, Everyone;

I've been lurking. It's been busy. But have been sending good wishes and
energy for those who have had tough times lately.

Don't know whether I should take my methotrexate tonight. Doug came down
with a horrendous stomach bug Thursday night. I've never seen him that sick.
No one else has come down with it, yet. But given its a busy week with lots
of commitments (including being responsible to cook dinner for 11 for a
progressive dinner next Saturday), it seems like it would be typical luck
for everyone to get this in turn, with me getting it right when I'm supposed
to cook.

Should I take the medication tonight and chance the continued lower
resistance, or wait until we're sure no one else will get sick?

Tough call. Missing it could mean you feel worse by the weekend with all
that work to do.

I don't skip a dose unless I can feel I'm coming down with something or have
something medical scheduled.

Stomach bugs don't get everyone in their turn as often as other stuff does.
