Thanks for the responses to my previous post.
I have now had two doses of Methotrexate. I take it early evening on a Sunday, and in terms of side effects have experienced fatigue and very sore skin for a couple of days.
I have blood tests this Monday to check internal responses, hopeful that all wil be okay.
No noticeable positive changes noted as yet, but recognise it might be about 8 weeks before that happens.
My skin is so tight that my arms and legs are bent and some daily living activities are difficult if not impossible at present. Remaining positive that the tablets will work in terms of some improvement when my skin softens...or am I being overly optimistic about that?
