Relief At Last

Less than one minute read time.

Good news. I had an appointment with my rheumatologist last week (3rd) and she knew exactly what was wrong, and how to treat it. She doubled my Leflunomide to 20mg and put me on Prednisolone 40mg and Lanzaprazole 30mg. Joint pain has gone, and the itching has definitely improved. Still get some, but nowhere near as bad as it was. Now I'm waiting for her to discuss with my oncologist whether or not she can put me back on Methotrexate again, or if I will have to go onto a different DMARD. I wasn't aware that Methotrexate could possibly cause a recurrence of my BC!!
