Sarah, so sorry to hear you are going tru this... I've gastritis, colitis and IBS, so I must also be careful with the meds I take, that's why I have opted for going meds-free most of the time (only when necessary) and trying with natural alternatives. That might not work for someone like you tho.

Have you asked this very same question to your rheumatologist? I think he is the one who should be answering this, because (as far as I know) none of us is a doctor.
 
i have never seen a rheumatologist my dr wont refer me to one i have asked
 
Sarah be persistant in your request, some dr.s bruise easy if you know what I mean.
