Experience with Methotrexate?

I’ve lost so much hair, I had to have the shower drain professionally plumbed to remove a huge hair ball. I have sparse coverage now that is hard for me to manage and style, so I have cut it off quite short with hopes it will grow back. I want to stop the methotrexate completely as it lowers my immunities, too. Do I have to gradually cut it out or just quit it?

I have not started Methotrexate - my doctor wants to wait, so I don't know much about it....Sorry. I would ask your doctor. and are you maybe on a high dose? is it for PMR?

Wondering if you are on oral or inject dose? How much? I have no hair loss, and that sounds upsetting! I am sorry to hear
