Guest guest Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 Hi Y'all, Well I have taken MTX for about a year and I know it has helped some but I am so tired of the side effects, 4 days after I take it, like clockwork, I get sick, weak, and have diarrhea for 2 days. I am 51 years old going on 90 those days. Next time I go to RHU I am telling him NO MORE!! I would rather have my hand turn than have this sickness. I feel like I am being slowly poisoned. I am going to keep the Humera for a while as it does not bother me. The MTX my have helped the knees but has not helped the wrist/hand pain. So why go on taking it? Question: Is there an alternative to MTX that will not make me so sick? Help y'all I need to have some alternative to talk to the Dr about. I take Neurontin and Vicodan for the Fibro and many other meds for various diseases. Any advice will be more than welcomed Thanks for listening ( or reading ) Heidi M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
