3. Yes, that one was horrible for me, too

I gloved and masked to deal with the cat litter and that seems to have worked, I didn't have any opportunistic cat bugs.

I was on the tablets twice a day and went around feeling like I was going to heave but rarely doing so. If I needed to go food shopping, I had to skip 2 doses to be able to do it, especially in places like Costco with their sample ladies at the ends of all the food aisles. I was delighted when my BUN got worse instead of improving and I could go off the shit.

Horrible stuff.

Methotrexate eventually made my GI system rebel, just like Plaquenil did. I'm pretty much out of drugs except my daily Prednisone.

I don't know what's worse sometimes, the diseases or their drugs.
