Sulfasalazine at one week

Scorecard(0-10)
Legs:0
Shoulders:1
Wrists & Thumbs:1
Ankles & Toes:0

Today marks the end of the first week of the sulfasalazine, albeit still supported by the diclofenac at the moment. There is a clear improvement in the symptoms compared to the era of diclofenac alone. I feel very good with little restriction in movement unless I attempt something stupidly heroic such as opening the heavy garage door one handed.

I slept as well as I have done for some time. And next week the sulfasalazine dose is increased from 500Mg daily to 1000Mg daily.


I await further developments with interest, particularly as I have confirmed another skiing trip for end March in Val d'Isere, arguably the toughest skiing area there is.
