This is Beryl .....I honk what John says is a more sensible move as you do not what a flair up....

I myself have been having trouble and am on 7.5mg with methotrexate 20mg once a week folic acid also .....I am improving but as usual very slowly .....pain level is never the same as it seems it goes with how much I have done that day ......but the good thing is where I had pain up to my waist it is now from thighs and down ......th stiff back was very difficult to deal with .....

I think I would say to you don't be in too much of a hurry this thing has a mind of its own .....but we are all different .....Beryl
