Hi lovely people, I have Covid and am wondering if I should miss my Methotrexate out this week. I was given antivirals, but had to stop because of an allergic reaction after 24 hours. What have you done in the same position please? My Rheumatoid is well controlled at the moment.

I haven’t had covid, but my rheumatologist made it clear to stop MTX and biologic if I got covid. You risk it worsening your symptoms if you take it. Not worth the risk.
I stopped mine for a week recently when I had covid went to talk with rheumatology nurses and they indicated this too. I didn't with a cold sinus infection and it went on for a month
