Methotrexate works for some people. Just don't let anyone tell you it doesn't work because it didn't work for them. The research supports that it is effective for some people. Just because it doesn't work for everyone doesn't mean it won't work for some people.

I'm happy methotrexate is working for you!!

I think methotrexate was working for me when I tried it. I was able to decrease my Prednisone dose as my methotrexate dose was increased. I was on methotrexate for more than a year until it was stopped.

My liver didn't like the increased doses of methotrexate. I started feeling sick but my rheumatologist didn't want me to stop taking methotrexate. She said I shouldn't be sick because my liver enzymes were not too high. She convinced me to try methotrexate again but I had aversion to it so I didn't take it very long the second time.
