    I'm almost 16 years old and I have JRA and also I am currently taking sulphasalazine,trexal,enbrel and etodolac. I'm just wondering why am I on methotrexate? I thought that was chemo. I mean i take it in very small doses once a week but still hopw does that help someone with arthritis. I forgot to ask my rheumatologist about it. I've been on it before but took it through injection.

Dr. I am now taking Retuxtian, I have already taken Remacaid, Orinsia, and now this, I am suppose to take Mexatrixaid, but it is hurting my stomach, I take it in orange juice. .10. I am taking celabrex and Pain pills. They have put me on so much stuff, but nothing seems to stop the hurt or stiffness. I am also having a nerve trouble, I think it is Syaidaca. but they don't know i don't think. Do you have any suggestions? Thank You Ruby Tucker
