Re introduction

[Forest Walker]

Thank you everyone for the welcome back and condolences. Caroline, methotrexate is what mybr Rheumatologist has started with for now. My next appointment is in December. He did tell me I won't be pain free but he would help keep me comfortable. Forest walker, I haven't had much with side effects on methotrexate. Just some nausea and hair loss. I am taking pills. I am up to 8 pills once a week.

I tried Methotrexate for about five months, but the nausea was too much for me.  I started with pills and went to injections, hoping that would ease the nausea, but it didn't.  Likely, there has been loads more medicinal therapy information added to the club in recent years.  It's such a good resource for all things Psoriasis/Arthritis.  I feel for you with the nausea and hair loss.
