Default Mrs. D...; Glenntaj

I've read the articles and I am printing them off for my rheumatologist. Also I've ordered the folinic acid. I actually ordered it last night but got the wrong one. Thanks for looking for the correct one for me. This is all going to be completely greek to my rheumatologist, but I am going to hope he can be educated. I only take one tablet of the prescription folic acid right now. Do you have any idea how much of the folinic acid from Source Natural I should take? I believe it's 800 mcg.

I'm not a caffiene consumer except for one cup of tea in the morning. I'm immediately switching to caffience-free based on your research. I don't claim to totally understand what you've found for me to read, but I do get the main meaning of it.

It's a real bummer to have this all happen. I don't know which will be worse tho, stopping the methotrexate and having multiple joints inflammed or breaking one every few weeks to say nothing of the crippling that happens from the joints deforming. So I'm really between the proverbial rock and hard place.

Glenn,
I'm looking at Forteo. The prescription Liza Jane has been taking instead of Fosamax. But her recent bout of increased neuropathy has us waiting out her trial situation of waiting to challenge with Forteo again. Other than that, I'm not sure there is anything to be gained medicational wise. But of course I'm open to education in the subject.

Thanks all of you, you are such treasures.
