Hi. Sorry to hear you're having these side effects. Hopefully, your doctor told you to take folic acid to combat the side effects of methotrexate. If they didn't, tell them your issues and ask how much you should take. Aside from that, there are many medications that have side effects that lessen with usage. I don't know if this applies to methotrexate.
