Hey Kat
Thanks for your reply. I do feel let down that it isn't working for me. I really did believe that things would be great by now, and they're not. But I have decided I'm not going to let it beat me. There has to be another way around it. Maybe I'm just sensitive to Arava, I dunno.

Yeh I suppose the biologic thing is the next option? My grandfather reckons it is 'the best thing since sliced bread'. For some reason he seems reluctant to prescribe it (even though he has said that I should meet the criteria for approval here) even though we have discussed it before in detail. I am not sure as to why that is - this time I am going to ask him. I'll let you know what happens on Tuesday.

Cheers,
Jess
