Hello Fred

Thank you I will definitely do so.

Hello All

I am in my sixteenth week on MTX.

Last week was emotionally bad for me. I was giving up. All this and no real change. The itchiness is still there. The spots are all over. 
However, I am hanging in and decided not to give up.
It is summer here and very hot and I am unable to wear shorts in public.

Appointment with Dermatologist 23 November 2018 in Cape Town (3 monthly follow up).
There is a possibility that my dosage will be increased to 15mg per week.

How do I insert a picture?

Hi Keith what a shame you are on a low dose methotrexate it might help getting a higher dose as I needed 25mg to clear me
Have you phoned dermatology and ask if you can increase early,tell them you are at your wits end
Hope you get clearance soon

Just thought I'd pop in to say you shouldn't get down that mtx hasn't worked for you at 10. I was on 10mg for a while and nothing was happening; my dosage was bumped up to 15mg and I started to notice change just a week after that.
