Hello everyone,
All I seem to post about now is enteropathic arthritis but I feel this has been going on to long now and I am gettin fed up. I have been suffering with severe pain in my right hip, knee, between shoulder blades and lower right back. I will have a week were the pain is just about bearable and then a week of excrutiating pain that I struggle to walk or even sit without nearly crying and I think I can handle pain quite well.
I am currently on 25mg week of methotrexate and take 6 sulfalsalazine tablets a day my crp is still raised and my pcv is low but I am only having occasional bowel issues. I have tried pentasa,aza,6mp,humira and remicade and don't know what is available in the uk for me to try next. I had an appointment last week with my rheumatologist and they said I might be able to try another biologic but I didn't know if there are any available in the uk for crohns at the moment. Does anyone know anymore?
I am starting to feel desperate the pain is awfull I take co codamol and tramadol but it doesn't help. Are there any other pain killers that are more effective? I have an appointment with my GI on Friday so I will be asking them for help I really think I need something I don't know what to do.
Sorry this has probably been a bit rambling but thank you for reading x
