Hi CC what a shame it stopped working for you, but it goes to prove that it doesn't work for everyone ....as you know I have been able to keep clear on it long term, but if it's failing and you've tried the steroid creams with it, perhaps it is time to move on 
I would ask about biological treatments and see if they will move you towards one of those....if however they insist on Methotrexate, I would say give it a try it might work and you may tolerate it well, it was not good for me ...but dermatologists have a protocol to abide by, which means you have to have tried and failed some of these drugs, ....if you are uneasy about it after a couple of weeks tell them you can't stick the side effects ...then they should offer something else..
I'm sure others will tell of their experience, but with me it was Methotrexate first....which I failed on then moved to Fumaderm
Good luck in your next treatment
