PMR and Methotrexate

Posted by paulinef @paulinef, Mar 15, 2018

I have been on prednisone for about a year and am finally down to a daily 7 mg dose. However, still feeling some stiffness and my rheumatologist has suggested a couple of times that I could could also go on Methotrexate. I'm reluctant to take yet another medication though so am wondering if anyone else has tried Methotrexate and if it helped lessen the PMR symptoms.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Polymyalgia Rheumatica (PMR) Support Group.

Thank you. If things get worse, I will discuss the medications with my rheumotologist.

We celebrate Thanksgiving on the second Monday in October because the harvest is earlier in Canada because of our colder temperatures.

It used to be a celebration of the monarchy.

Every region eats different foods. And ever culture has their own ethnic/ cultural dishes. Turkey and Ham are usual one of the main dishes.

In Canada Thanksgiving dinner is not as an important as other holidays. As a child we went to the next province for the weekend to spend time with extended family. On Thanksgiving we were driving home eating sandwiches!

Take care.
