Hello Kathleen

I was on mtx - stopped started 3 times before coming off as upset me liver.
Then sulphs, luflun, all to no avail. Was accepted in Jan for Humira, however
due to lots of calamities from health care, then me having 3 x anti biotics
I have not started. I am going to France 2 weeks today for 2 weeks so
it has been decided I wait now till I come home - just in case or problems.
I have waited nearly 5 months so another 3/4 weeks in the scale of things
won't really matter.

Hope you get started back on the mtx shortly x

Oh for some methotrexate!

Like you Kathleen I had problems with methotrexate (after about 10 years!) but mine was depleting the neutrophils leaving me prone to recurring infections. Often stopping for a couple of weeks does the trick but sadly it didn't work for meThumbDown

Hope you get back onto it soon and you continue to benefit from it. I still keep pleading to get mine back!
