As the title says I changed 3weeks ago am finding the fatigue overwhelming. come home from work sleep 3/4 hours each day and struggle to get back up for a few hours then back to bed as am up very early in the morning for work. Am not feeling any sickness as yet and not having flare. Feel a relief at not having to face the injections. I take half my tablets of mtx in the morning and then half at bedtime.
Thanks for listening.
Take care Carol
Yes I'm the same on tablets... Total wipe out! Still got some pain and swelling too unfortunately. I was thinking of asking for injections.
I hope the exhaustion wears off for you soon.
Thanks for posting Carol; I'm considering it, fed up with nausea but don't want fatigue either, swings n roundabouts eh? 😊
Hi Carolsos. I also used to inject, 25mg but my liver function became elevated and I started to get needle phobic. After a short rest (I also take Leflunomide) Rheumy put me on MTX tablets, at a much lower dose, 7.5mg. Like you, I felt relieved not to have to inject. 
I am on the same dose as injection of 20mg I also take hydrochloride and leflumamid, but ATM am suffering with very painful left foot pain. Had a ultrasound about 3weeks ago but not heard anything back yet. Being on my feel for 7 hours straight do not do me any favours either. So think after Easter will ring consultant as it was him to order it. Hope you take care.

Changed from oral to injection Methotrexate.
What are the pros and cons of MTX injections as opposed to tablets?
Tablets to injections
