			<title>Arava - Is there any help for patients that don&#039;t have insurance?</title>
			<description><![CDATA[
My sister has RA and has no insurance. Is there any program offered for Arava? This is the medicine her Dr. has prescribed for her and she is having a terrible time being able to pay for it. She is in the process of applying for Disability but for the last 2 years she has been paying out of pocket for everything. She has not been able to work for the last 11 months so it&#039;s getting harder for her to keep paying for this medicine. The price has gone up almost 20.00 since she started on it....

I need something to fill that gap left from stopping the mtx. My body was used to the drug; I had been taking it for eight years. I developed a sudden and serious pulmonary hypersensitivity to it that landed me in the hospital for a week. Now the arthritis is out of control. Any suggestions?

			<title>Does Arava cause severe leg cramps?</title>
			<description><![CDATA[
Arava is the only new medication I am on and for the past week I have been getting nightly leg cramps and the are getting worse. Last night I awoke with not only with severe leg cramps, but my feet were all twisted with severe pain as well as having hardened muscles in the calves. Is this caused by the Arava??? 
I telephoned my pharmacy and they said to stop it right away and call my physician.
I telephoned my physician and he said the Arava is not causing the leg cramping.
Please assist.

... RX? He said hopefully more energetic &#38; possibly increase in sexual libido. We are trying to ween me off of the steroids I&#039;ve been on to control my RA for about 12 yrs. But w/ the 13 different RXs, I just accepted the loss of both of these years ago.I even went to a shrink thinking something was wrong mentally. She explained that w/ all the meds, it was &#34;normal&#34;. Sad, when feeling this &#34;flat-lined&#34; (as i look at it) is considered normal. Granted at least I&#039;m not...

			<title>Rheumatoid Arthritis - Has anyone on Enbrel had hair loss? I had been on Arava for four months and?</title>
			<description><![CDATA[
... noticed I was lossing more hair than normal. Arava was great in helping my lower extremity pain, but not in my wrist. Told my doctor this and she put me on Enbrel along with the Arava and 2.5 mg of Prednisone in the hopes of stopping the Arava. After 5 weeks of this treatment, my hair loss has gotten considerably worse. The doctor has taken me off the Arava now for a week, but I still have the hair loss. Has anyone ever gone bald being on these drugs?
