Re: Mtx -- tablet or injectable

[Guest guest]

Having used both, I believe the injections offer a little less fatigue and fog

but it's much better on the whole digestive system for me I've found that no

matter what you do the oral will eventually catch up with you.

So if I understand this right, the injectable Mtx is only better on your  

stomach? It doesn't help with the fatigue and mental fog? I was going to ask

my  RA doc for a trial, but if it doesn't help the last two, I don't think I

 will.

I think that everyone responds differently to MTX, so it wouldn't hurt to give

it a try. I have a lessening of the severity and duration of my symptoms, but

it may be different for you. I have to say that it is nice not having that

really intense nausea that I would get after taking those pills! Plus, it does

save on the stomach, considering all of the other medications we tend to take.

It's also cheaper too.

What about taking Zofran with it? I live on the stuff for 2 days after each

Enbrel injection. Helps me a lot with the nausea. D. in HOT, sunny
