Uv,
This sounds good with the MTX working for you like that.
Thank you also for the words to the song. That was very kind of you.

Been good except for a virus I picked up which knocked
me on my back. Fatigue only -- guess I should be grateful.
I got a new knee back in November and it is treating me
very well.
Have you found a new RD since you fired the last one?

no, I'm not looking for a new RD until either the MTX stops working or I go
into a flare. I was seeing him quarterly just to have him tell me that I was
doing fine, and to tease me with the possibility of going on Enbrel. My PCP
feels confident that he can keep up with my bloodwork and scripts better
anyway because I see him for so many other things, we're in better contact,
AND he has access to all the RD'buddies' that he can consult if he feels
he's in over his head. And if he ever gets in over his head, he'll just
refer me anyway, he ain't shy about pushing me toward someone with more
knowledge. This is basically my call, and he's going along to humor me, I
think.
It's hard to find good doctors nowerdays, and I think I found me a GREAT
doctor!!!!

I think you have found one too. I love a guy who knows
what he doesn't know and not ashamed to admit it.
