Urso meds

Hi,

I’ve been really unwell this year with scleroderma/PBC/Sjögren’s syndrome and I also have hypothyroidism. I started methotrexate a few weeks ago and I’m trying to get used to that, and now I’ve been told after many years of dodging it, that I have to start urso as my alk phos has been elevated all year and I have a large risk of severe fibrosis. I’ve been horribly poorly this year and I’m worried about side effects on top of managing the methotrexate. Any insight would be great! Thanks Lisa
