Thanks for your message. Well firstly I would like to modify her dmards. Probably we should methotrexate in combination with other drugs unless she has had intolerance to it. Yes hcqs has run out of stock in view of current corona crisis. But hope...

Rheumatoid arthritis for 7 years. Now on dmard (hcqs, saaz and leflunomide), depo medrol injection in right ankle (intra articular). Now right ankle synovitis again, please advice?
And hcqs finished and not available in market, what any other option of hcqs?

Living with Rheumatoid Arthritis

Well rheumatoid nodules may be an indication of the underlying disease activity. Reditux is known to help in it but if it is still developing we need to some different medicines for you like sulphasalazine or lefra.

I am 69 years old and suffering from ra since 2004. Now I am taking hcqs 200, dytor 10 daily and reditux injection yearly twice with a gap of 15 days. I have developed rheumatoid nodules in left hand. Is there any treatment of this nodule.

Well there is a possibility that the rituximab is not working in your case. So if the need arises we should change the biological medicine. Secondly if only 1 joint is left I would suggest you get it injected. That should relieve the ankle pain.

I'm a rheumatoid arthritis patient.
I took rituxan third cycle (each cycle of two intravenous infusions). After three months also there is no improvement in my right ankle pain and swelling.
I have been taking regularly folitrax 15 mg per week and hcqs 200 mg per day.
Sick of going to hospital as there is no improvement.
I'm a rheumatoid arthritis patient since 10 years.
Please advise if there is any cure for this disease.

Please dont treat her for rheumatic heart disease. Aso is a misused test and patients are treated long term for no reasons. If she has pain and swelling in the elbow and knee joints, I would suggest you visit a rheumatologist and get it sorted out...

My wife often complains pain in her elbows and knee joints. I had her ASO test done and the result was 1050 IU/ml.
She is 28. Her parents and one of her sibling have history of joint pain, rheumatism. My wife has not taken any kind of medication or therapy regarding this in her life. Please help.

Managing Knee Pain

Well, if your disease is well controlled on it, continue the same. Try to go off medrol as it will affect your bones in the long run.

I am 57 year old lady suffering from rheumatoid arthititis and taking medicines from last 9-10 years. What is other remade for it.

Stood 1st Rank in The Post graduation in the Department of Internal Medicine. Was awarded a certificate for the same.
