Hi,
My Rheumy prescribed
Methotrexate, but she won't treat ANY of the side effects.
I saw her on Thursday to get steroid injections in my wrists, she SAW me with swollen legs and feet, fever and chills, sore throat. I also am having a terrible time with wheezing, gurlgy lungs. Plus, abdominal pain, and a few other side effects. I feel HORRIBLE!!!!
So, she tells me to see my Family Physician!!!!!!!!!!! BUT, SHE prescribed it?????????????????????????????/
I DON'T UNDERSTAND???
This ALL makes me VERY angry!!! Her nurse tells me she ONLY treats Arthritis. No fake!! Darnit, if SHE prescribed it, SHE ought to treat the side effects!!!
Would all of you assume that SHE should treat it, and NOT send me to my Family Physician????
I "think" I am right????
Please help me out on this.
Thanks!!!
