Methotrexate + methylfolate= any problems?

Hi, raspberry_tea! Thank you so much for replying and giving me that wonderful link. I have read quite a bit about MTHFR, but some of it was quite confusing, That link was very comprehehsive and had so much practical and easy to understand information for the layman. I have one doctor who is wonderful. He is not an authority on Vasculitis or MTHFR but he is trying to help me sort through it all. There were some very good suggestions for testing to see what supplements might be beneficial.....and which might be harmful that I will share with him. Sometime I feel like we are Don Quitxote and Sancho Panza jousting at windmills. But, I dont know what else to do. The "specialist" just want to throw drugs at me and ,so far, they aren't working that well. ( I'm in Fort Worth, Texas...... That explains a lot Best wishes to you too.

Suzym2u......That is a wonderful idea, and I would love to go somewhere where someone knows something about this awful thing i was "unlucky" enough to come in contact with. (That's how one doctor put it.) However, I am in Fort Worth Texas....not really close to any well-known clinics. I am a divorced, retired teacher and do not have the funds to travel far. So, I am pretty much stuck here with a handful of semi-interested doctors and my computer. I have learned some interesting things though, For example: a MTHFR defect, if not addressed can lead to fibromyalgia, vacsular plaque formation, cardiovascular and neurological disease, autism etc. So, discovering your genetic defects and treating them in a timely manner might change the course of some of these autoimmune diseases. I am also adopted, and there were no autoimmune diseases of any kind in the family I grew up with. Another interesting bit of information: I found out from 23&Me that 93.5% 0f my ancestors came from Northern Europe.......mainly UK, France, Germany, and Ireland. The whole thing is very interesting, unexpected and terrifying!

As mentioned before, I have unspecified Vasculitis of the subclavian, brachial and its branches, and the right vertebral arteries Carodids and aorta are fine. It's somewhat of a mystery! I also have slightly high blood pressure, borderline cholerterol, mild osteoarthritis, osteopenia, and acid reflux. i take medications for all those things, as well as steroids,methotrexate and aspirin81. Any thoughts or information you could give me would be greatly appreciated. Best Wishes.
