Hi All:

 

I was wondering if anyone could suggest drugs that they know of or may be taking to slow the degeneration in their joints. I found out yesterday that I have osteopenia in my fingers and that the tissues in my fingers, knuckles and wrists are degenerating.

 

I'm on 6-2.5 mg of methotrexate a week, but after seeing those xrays, I get the impression it's not really working.

 

Any input is greatly appreciated!
