Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Arthritis / October 2005Now I feel all wierd...
I was at the vet, discussing my cat's meds when I realized that my cat and I have the same perscription - same medicine! I didn't realize it before because I get generic pills and he gets brand name drops. Very different doses obviously but I've been feeling creepy ever since Lol! <grin> He seems to be feeling better then me too. My new thumb pain is a real pain in the, um, hand. My writing hand too. grumble. Skip >I was at the vet, discussing my cat's meds when I realized that my cat and I >have the same perscription - same medicine!

My adored dog passed away at the end of last year and she had an auto immune arthritis problem for many years before she died. About 2 months after she died I was diagnosed with RA and have been on the same NSAID and prednisone she was on. My dr was most impressed at my knowledge of auto immune arthritic diseases when I was first diganosed and found it amusing when I told him it was becauase Ide read up over the years on the doggie versions.

NSAIDs do not completely control RA. Prednisone can control something's about RA with a price to be paid. Do you also take a DMARD like Methx, Arava, or others? Harv >>I felt like that at first too. >> [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > > Harv None of the NSAID's worked for me and I was on Plaquenil but that didnt work either, Prednisone was all that worked to control the pain and Im pregnant now so once Ive had the baby we will be starting down the methotrexate track but while Im pregnant I dont have any choice but prednisone Im afraid. Yep it is a rheumatologist, he started me ont he plaquneil while my husbnad and idecided if we wanted babies or not as he said onec methotrexate started you shouldnt get pregnant o it and it takes a while to get out of your system if you do decide you want to try and then sometimes doesnt work as well the second time around. Im looking forward to eventually going on it and hopefully getting off this prednisone Im on as I worry about its long term side effects.

May God bless you with remission and a wonderful baby and we will worry about the other stuff down the road.
