I was taking Methotrexate for two months and it had no affect whatsoever and my kidney function decreased so that was the end of that. Prednisone seems to be the only medicine that helps and although we don't care for the side effects we have no choice it seems.

Thank you for sharing your experiences Jp. Yeah, I don’t even want to consider it. Basically a poison, a type of chemo. Targeted but messes with our cellular function I believe.
