This drug has been my life for the past 5 years. Constantly living with the side effects, I´m 22 but I feel like 82

This is for everyone with RA - keep up the fight. 💪 Just took my methotrexate today. Been two years since I was diagnosed, feel a lot better.

Anyone taking it pls keep in mind fatty liver disease. It doesn't get the serious attention it deserves. My mother died from it, wasn't picked up until it was terminal. Benni 1937-2018. ❤️

This stuff is nasty. Caused mouth sores, hair loss, and I’m pretty sure it’s messing with my eyes too. Damn chemo drug

[falicityregalado]

im on methatrexate injection each week and i hate it it makes me feel so sick like i need to throw up 💀🤷🏽‍♀️

[crizlopez]

Just months before taking my methotrexate my liver function tests and ultrasonic shows my healthy liver up and then just a year or less of taking this my liver tests shows fatty liver in that short period of time while on methotrexate its just so sad when doctors always claiming that oh no it wont harm your body in any way cause "it's just a low dosage pills for chemo" compared to what cancer patients take .... Buts sometimes i guess it really is depends upon each and everyone's body And state of health on how it will or will not take any side effects of our body

[kevinconaty]

i havent had any side affect with methotrexate, ive been on it for about 2 months now, lucky me

[hzleyez]

I started my first dose of 3 pills. I took it at nigh an within an hour. I felt like brain was gonna explode. I had the worst migraine ever. The morning after I almost fainted. I checked my bp it dropped pulse was 114. My heart felt like it was gonna jump out my chest while steal dealing the head ache. I felt 100% other than normal aches and pains prior to taking the methotrexate. I'm also sensitive to meds.

[artofficial]

Wasn’t for me. Endless aspirating mucus that looked like batter that almost choked me out. My system requires holistic tendencies.

[fritolays]

My eye doctor just prescribed this to me. I was diagnosed with bilateral uveitis, and they can not find a cause. Although, they have done blood work and test, they want to see if this along with steroids will eliminate the inflammation in both eyes by suppressing the immune system.

[reginaldburnbridge]

I had hair loss nausa and it caused inflammation of my stomach very bad distension. Had to come off it.

[almightyjr]

Hit there I been in methotrexate for about a year now. I feel like I got my RA under control for now. But I have loud tinnitus I reas that’s a side effect but rare. Could this be the case I never had damage to my ear 👂

[sarahandemmalemoignan]

First line of attack.. my daughter was put on actemra infusions. They worked with steroids too, but when she comes off them, her soijra comes back hard ..flare. She starts methotrexate tomorrow night and I'm terrified for her. I've heard horror stories. Ugh.

[PamelaZKemper]

Having a hard time with Trexall, any recommendations for pain relief or managing the nausea and migraines would be appreciated 💕

[nadiamungal]

[kittu]
