wouldn't that be wonderful if we could have this new drug? no steroids ever again.
Methotrexae's ability to work for me against the pain, and the diarrhea, and the weakness and loss of energy is not doing this now. all the doctor can do now is give me prednisone. i do not wish to take predinisone, but it sure does feel good to walk again. I could walk into the grocery store parking lot last night, without using a buggy as a walker. I could walk in without being out of breath. I walked around in the store, shopping for things, and I walked out carrying two bags of groceries, without being out of breath. This morning however that ability to walk was gone. and the diarrhea happened last night. so I do not what could be next.
good to hear from you again, and I apologize for not writing sooner
