MX Injections

This is a little delicate but since on methetrexate injection my urine is florecent yellow, is this how it should be?

Hi Wendi

I've not heard of that before. I've been on mtx for 20 years and I don't think it's ever been fluorescent? Do you have a leaflet with your mtx you can read re side effects? It may mention it.

You don't take Sulphasalazine as well do you? I put my interesting orange'ish coloured urine down to that.....

Not something I've had on MTX with either tablets or injections. You've not had a new med recently that could have caused it have you, apart from MTX that is, maybe for another condition? If not I would mention it to your Rheumy nurse.

Thank you, I will mention this at my appointment when I go on Tuesday

SSZ makes your wee go pretty colours, but I'd not heard about MTX doing it. Are you drinking enough? Could it just be that its a bit stronger in colour than normal?

Bright yellow urine might indicate a liver problem. I really think you need to give the GP a ring. Sue

Thank you I will be seeing specialist for my blood results so I will mention it, I have also had pain under my rib area for a few weels so will sort that out at the same time.
