Methotrexate stuff

read:http://www.livestrong.com/article/420615-why-cant-i-take-folic-acid-the-same-day-as-methotrexate/
also this in regard to injections:  If it is single dose then room temperature. DO NOT, reuse after initially piercing the septum. Multi dose vials have preservatives that inhibit bacterial growth. Single dose doesn't, so it isn't safe to save the vi

Here is some comments on it: "At first I did have some nausea and flu like symptoms so my dr divided my dose over two nights. After about a month my body adjusted so I now take it at night around 9 PM and make sure I have something to eat like a banana or yogurt. I rarely suffer from any side effects. Once in a while I'll wake up with a little nausea but it is not a problem."

shells painted with sharpie

found this on facebook where the comment said:
Barbara Moloney Callen So, yeah. These are mine. I actually used a .25mm Micron drawing pen but many other have posted their efforts on Sanibel-Inspired Artisans using Sharpies. I sealed them with Mod Podge clear sealant spray. Carol Good's post below led me to this page which is just great and I will be following. The power of Facebook! smile emoticon

Humira help:

also there is this that someone told me about:  applied on the Humira website for the Humira complete card and only have a monthly copay of $10 thanks to Humira. Maybe try that. It helps a lot! Better than the $4,500 the pharmacy wants for it without my insurance covering it!

Also if you ice the area before injecting it helps reduce the pain
