Sorry if this is repeating myself, pressed a wrong button so doing it again. My RA is really bad in my toes, elbows and hands too, but my toes feel as if they're in a vice. I'm on Methotrexate injections, Folic acid, Sulfasalazine, Tramadol and Hydroxychloroquine. Had steroid injections in my toes twice, now waiting to have them again. Spent a fortune on shoes (advice from members already on that, thankyou) What next, what can I do, where do I go from here? I really would appreciate help on this. Kath

Sorry Kath I dont know much about drugs, wish I could help maybe somebody else has an answer. I hope it passes quickly - do you have anything to help you sleep? I have seen some posting by people on morphine patches.

hi Kath,
Have you seen a podiatrist?

If you haven't,ask the rheumy team or your GP to refer you.

SO sorry to hear how much pain you're in...and steroid injections into the toes sounds like one big OUCH!

How about a hot bath? or ice?

Love,

Amanda
