I take all three, methotrexate by weekly injections, naproxen for pain and inflammation and amitriptyline for fibromyalgia nerve pain.I would 100% run this by your gp or rheumatologist dept for their advice to ensure they consider this safe for you to do so. Maybe they would consider a short course of steroids for now instead?

Do ask the professionals though.
