I have just moved this post to welcome Jeff, Julia
This is my first post on this forum - so hope I'm doing it right!
I was originally advised by my specialist nurse that anything less than a count of 20 on the ESR scale was OK. Mine ranged between 5 and 20 when I was on a 20mg Methotrexate dose but it has come down to almost a constant 4 since the dose was increased to 25mg a year ago.
So I guess your medication must be working too.
Take care.
Jeff

Hi Jeff
Welcome to the forum, it is good you have joined us.
Good to hear your medication has worked well for you, I have been on leflunomide but hasn t really worked so now being considered for infliximab, will get there in the end !
Wishing you all the best Julia
