Like anything else it's a question of checks and balances and for PsA is can be very effective ,yes it is a very toxic substance but the question is ,where do you go from here that is as effective and is not just as or worse with side effects.
Well I wouldn't use it unless I had to, which is now. I would rather not take it as it is still Poison in my opinion, but like you said where do I go from here when all avenues have been tried and all other doors are closed.
Jim summed it up, I have reached a point where I need something fast to get me out of this. So Methotrexate is my only option for that, but if I'm honest I want it to fail so I can say I told you so.
Should it work and get me out of this mess then I will probably stick to it for the three months, but I'm seriously looking into my options because I will not stay on it after three months. If it means me going back to this state again because I stopped using it after three months then .............................................. well if I'm honest I just don't know at the moment.
But for now my mind is set on getting myself sorted by whatever means it takes, and that means me taking poison.
