Maryloumoo Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 I have rheumatoid arthritis and I am currently in the worst flare of my life. I can’t even brush my own hair. My rheumatologist wants me to take methotrexate but I am terrified. I’ve read it can cause serious lung issues and I can hardly breathe as it is. I’m so sad! Anyone?

Justin1970 Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Hi My mum has rheumatoid arthritis,copd and bronchiectasis and is on oxygen she tried methotrexate and it made her worse so she now takes leflunomide and it seems to work for her, I hope this helps and I really hope you feel better soon all the best Take care Justin Maryloumoo, Izzy and LouT 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
