Dawn I suggest you click the Search Button (which is only available to logged-in members) type in methotrexate in the search by keyword box, leave the rest as it is, scroll down and click the search button. You will get 5 pages of threads that mention Methotrexate, and you will find good things and bad things about it but it will give you a lot of information.
At the end of the day it's your body and what works for some may not work for others. Have a look at the Methotrexate thread to get the basics, make sure you are having regular check-ups, use only as you have been prescribed, and report any side affects to your GP/Dermatologist.
Sometimes others comments can seem worrying, but that's what is good about Psoriasis Club we are just people with psoriasis giving our personal unbiased opinion of a treatment, and who knows you may join the ranks of the Methotrexate positives and start a new thread telling others how good it was for you.
