Anyone having luck while taking methotrexate?

My Dr. switch me to MTX injections (1 ml weekly) because it was more effective than oral tablets. No other meds except daily folic acid. RA pain is now well managed.

My understanding from various arthritis support groups that MXT is more likely to assist with RA than PMR. There are slightly different inflammatory chemicals involved (cytokines Il-6 etc) and MXT appears to target the RA ones better.
