I’m sure I’ll end up on infusions eventually, but since I had a traveling Rheumatologist doctor change my diagnosis and take me off Methotrexate and prednisone and put it was chronic pain syndrome, (after a 7 minute appointment and no physical exam) it put me back to square one. I had to let my symptoms become severe enough to affect my hands and put me in bed to finally get imaging ordered to diagnose me.
I do feel a little better after two days on 5 mg prednisone and 10 mg leflunomide. I’ve been considering trying CBD lotion or a roll on.

So frustrating! The medical community is a hot mess right now! And those of us with conditions suffer
