I was diagnosed about four months ago. I am taking MTX and sulfasalazine. I also take ultram er and lyrica for pain. I also have fibromyalgia and a bulding disc in my back. My levels were going up the last time I saw my Rheumy and now I give myself injection s of MTX every week. I have also had alot of cold sores from the MTX and now I am on a low dose of phamver to help control it. The morning is the worst for me and my hour drive to work each day doesn't help. I work a fourty hour work week and am on my feet all day. I have started having problems with my feet. I feel like they burn sometimes. Anybody have any tips?

     I am having a hard time dealing with the thought of slowing down and not doing so much. Being a single mom is hard enough. Let alone dealing with this... I have however found some strength for reading all the posts in the group. It does help to know I am not the only one.
