Had to stop all meds

My doctor took me off the methotrexate just over a month ago and up until last week I was still getting my biologic infusions. But because my liver tests are coming back extremely high 204 for AST and 195 for ALT). The problem now is that I’m in a constant flare that is so bad I can’t even function. I can’t take Tylenol because of the liver issues and I can’t take any NSAIDs. So what do I do?

  1. That sounds really tough, . I’m so sorry you're going through all of that. Dealing with a flare-up is already bad enough, but having to manage liver issues on top of it must feel so frustrating. Have you been able to talk to your doctor about other options? Maybe there’s something else they can try, like different meds or therapies that won’t mess with your liver. I really hope you find something that gives you some relief soon. You deserve to feel better. I hope things turn around for you soon. -Latoya (Team Member)
