Starting MTX

[jiml]

Hi guys,

First of all, a BIG thanks to pingu for this user guide, I just finished reading it

I started mtx last Thursday, 15 mg/week (5 mg/2 pills every 8 hours). On Friday I felt like a zombie, I had a terrible headache, and I threw up several times. Now, everything is good, and I look forward for the next Thursday. Tomorrow I will have my first set of blood tests 
I am covered with P about 3-4%, I hope to see big improvements soon. 
I will keep you updated.

Hi Michele  it's good to see you are finding the forum useful, for finding out what to expect from your medication, yes you have had the usual side effects which hopefully will subside   I hope that the clearance will start getting better. Good luck with the blood test tomorrow  

Now might be a good time to start your own thread so it will be easier for you to look back on and will enable others to follow your journey
If you want to do that (and it's not compulsory   ) you can click on this link and then click on new thread button Psoriasis And Psoriatic Arthritis Topics you could call it anything you like for instance "Michele's methotrexate journey "
