The Big "R"

[vdub]

I had my SLC appt today and the doc thinks I might be in remission. I need to have an MRI of the brain and a CT scan of the lungs, but if those two things show no change from the last pictures, then I'll start a one tab a week taper from the mtx. By the end of Sept, I might be off the mtx. Of course, I still have the half dozen pit pills, but I think the mtx is what's causing me to feel so poorly. Lets hope!

Good news vdub. We can be tapering buds. I'm down to 5 (from a high of 7) and going down to 4 next week. My doc is tapering one tab every six to eight weeks, because he wants to see me every time I step down.

I'm on 10 tabs and I will be tapering 1 tab a week. I will start after the last two tests are back and compared with last Feb. Hopefully, start mid-July. Sure hope it works.....
