    Hi Jennifer

    I have been one of the lucky ones, touch wood all the meds I have had so far have been good to me with no side effects apart from lowering my immune system. Methatrexate does had to be lowered due to liver function but apart from that all good on sulfasalazine Methatrexate and Cimzia. Probably not what you want to hear but everyone reacts differently to every drug. Best wishes

    When it comes to DMARDS and TNF medications we are all different.

    If you have the associated Arthritis, your pain medications and NSIDs are gain a personal choice you will suite

    They will generally try you on different drugs to see what will work best this can take time.
