@luck3 good luck to you too! It appears we have a small group with both Crohn’s and PMR, and several others with other autoimmune combos. I really think we need to encourage our various specialists to communicate with each other. Clinicians don’t always follow the research. They just don’t have the time, which is understandable. I’m also going to start MTX, but I am not optimistic, based on a few articles which have been recently posted on other threads.

Hi @prestol, There are quite a few discussions and comments on Methotrexate. Thought I would share a link with the search results in case it might be helpful to see them:

Thank you for your response! I had just one dose of Methotrexate and got side effects, so my Doctor had me stop:( The search continues for a drug that will work.
I agree that my gastroenterologist and rumatolagihst need to confer with each other.
On it goes!!
