@n1234 I just thought of 2 questions. How long on methotrexate and are you completely off of Prednisone?
Thanks.

Yes, I am no longer taken prednisone ( I took it for about 5 weeks). I started Methotrexate about three months ago. It takes several weeks to kick in, but I feel 85%-95% better. It really depends on the day. I also take folic acid ((1mg) every day to offset any possible side effects from the Methotrexate.
