Hi Smegs,
Welcome! love the name, love red dwarf too
Like most on here I've tried MTX and yeah lasted about 6 months and spent 3 or 4 days of the week with really bad nausea always happened when after i took the folic acid, as with Jim it got so bad i pretty much had the attitude of screw this so i went and had a chat with Chuckles my derm and agreed to try something else. I'm sure you've seen already but everyone is different, what works for one person might not be so great for another.
But i will admit like Fred i do tend to get chills when reading stuff about MTX, that said though it did clear me right up i was 100% clear so it does work, its how much you're willing to pay for it with the side effects. (although with me i had a friend check on me every so often because she was worried as soon as i told her the other uses the drug has).
