Mtx hangover after increased dose - yuk
On Thursday, at last, I was able to take the increased dose of
Metoject
. I had a horrible hangover, very nauseous and just plain 'groggy' not to mention very sleepy, for 24 hours. I am hoping that this is a one off and things get easier. Does anyone have their meds delivered by Healthcare at Home?

Possible GCA flare and Pred dosage advice please!
I’m also on 12.5 mg
Metoject
. Once on the 15 mg dose, the temporal headache returned, along with night sweats and increased fatigue, so after a week, I increased my dose to 17.5 mg, which helped a little. Today, my headache is much worse so I’ve gone up to 20 mg.

Metoject Redness area
I’m going to make Appt with doc for tomorrow but a bit concerned with the site on my tummy of my last
Metoject
25ml injection. I administered it 6 days ago but the site has slowly gotten more red and fiery red . It looks like a burst blister with raw skin .

Methotrexate injections ! Metoject pen
Whoever invented this injection pen is awesome ! I did my first mtx injection last night and I can honestly say I didn't feel anything, so quick, easy and painless. The difference for me from the MTX tablets and injections is like night and day. Tablets was sick for 5 days , so far with injection (fingers

About to have a week away in UK, first since using Metoject.
What should I do with used
metoject
? Take a plastic pot and bring home? Can I then put the used pot in household waste and pen into my sharps bin??

Bone density loss with methotrexate?
The leaflet in
metoject
box re side effects says1/100 chance but no information. I’ve had horrific spiral comminuted open fractures of my tibia and fibula following low impact missed my foot/fell to the ground that shouldn’t cause those injuries.

The NHS is really struggling
In reference to my last post where I am awaiting a training session to use
metoject
injection for methatrexate my appointment has come through from the hospital and it's for November 🤯 So it will be nearly 3 months wait on no DMARD for a 10 minute appointment.....

Expected wait for injection, am I being impatient ?
Its been 2 weeks since i stopped taking MTX tablets and am awaiting a training session at my local hospital as to how self inject (
metoject
pen). I'm not worried about injecting I just want to get on with things as I know it can take months to work.

Syringe disposal MTX in household waste?
I contacted my GP to say my yellow disposal bin for
Metoject
pens is full and asked where I should take it. They sent me a leaflet and a prescription for a needle clipper.

So much knee pain!
I have been on mtx for the last 6 years (tablets) which were changed last week to the
Metoject
Pen, I was also prescribed Prednisolone starting at 15mg a day for a week, then reducing weekly, so 3 weeks treatment in all.

Benepali injections
I inject methotrexate via
Metoject
and don’t bat an eyelid at that, I used to inject MXT by syringe with no issues either, but just the thought of the Benepali injection makes my palms sweat!! Has or does anyone use an anaesthetic cream like Emla? Can anyone recommend a cream or a coping tactic?

When an RA flare is no longer a flare because it never stops... How long, in your experience does Metoject take to work?
I have prednisone in my medicine cupboard, I don't want to take it, so am trying to wait it out with
Metoject
and Naproxen.

Metoject pen
I have used
Metoject
pens for years and on my last prescription the pharmacy gave me Methofill injections instead. They are horrid and I spoke to my rheumy nurse and she said that I should not use them and to get back and ask for
Metoject
pens only.
