Well, I did have a doctor talk in riddles and mention that a lot of people don't tolerate it well.
(I got his meaning, to not take it and just come back and tell him I couldn't tolerate it so he could prescribe something else. This was the same doctor early on who was explaining the treatment steps and that I'd probably have to go on Methotrexate at some point but we skipped it and the insurance gave the okay)
But I didn't want to suggest you do something like that
I see Jim had no problems suggesting it though!
I'd still see if they'd go another direction (although some people have had good results while on it, I do feel the need to say that) and if not and you don't want to try it, well......... do what you need to do.
