So I am at work right now feeling pretty good. I have been on the Methotrexate for about 2 months, and had no symptoms really. I guess I am fortunate. I am told that pregnancy can be a huge issue on methotrexate so I decided to try some lo estrogen birth control. I am a little worried because last time I went on the birth control I gained 20 lbs:( but that was also because I had hypothyroidism. God it just never ends. Sometimes I feel like Im jusst waiting to get something else you know. But the other day when I was out to dinner, a lady I know pulled me a side and told me that her and one of her friends have a disease too. She told me I was not the only one who had a disease and that she would be there for me if I needed to talk. I thought that was the highlight of my week. Its nice to know that there are other people just like us and have other things to deal with. Anyways, Gotta go back to work but just wanted to express the fact that we are all strong and there is always someone worse then we are:)
