I don't let her hold my hand, she squeezes it if I get out of line. She's also very good at arm wrestling, and has won many a drink in pubs doing that.
Today:
Headache still there but not so bad.
Nausea still there but a bit better.
Tiredness about the same.
Appetite still not right which is unusual for me.
Also not sure if it's related to not eating so much, cutting down a little on alcohol, or the methotrexate, but I've lost 4kg.
This sounds very familiar Fred , I found that it gradually reduced that is until the next injection when we went through it again but after three weeks it got less. I did find that playing around with the folic helped a little. I do know that since I started on the Stelara I have put on a lot of weight mind you I drank no alcohol at all when I was MTX except for a G&T or wine once a month as a treat !!
