I saw the specialist yesterday and she’s recommending methotrexate. I’m unclear if it will be an infusion, self administered injection or oral (although I don’t think she would prescribe oral route) She did give me an injection of steroid and even though it was a very small dose, my stomach hurt tremendously last night and today!! I have taken all I can take to help it, so now, I wait and get my head busy thinking about ANYTHING ELSE!! Thank you for your kindness!!

@efg4me even an injection!
Oh my.
So, an infusion would be worse…
How about transdermal?
Is there a cream or patch strong enough?
You need something ASAP!
I’m sitting here thinking…
When you had your stomach surgery, did they give you any alternative suggestions for what you are experiencing now?
Oh, TRY THIS!
When my stomach is upset I can rub peppermint essential oil mixed with a little cream on my belly. I rub it all over my middle around my navel. It really helps! Get some Therapeutic Grade peppermint essential oil. You can’t use it directly on your skin. It must be mixed with cream or anything else.
Even smelling it will help!
Let us know how you are doing. You are not alone!
