I was already losing my hair before and now it's really falling out. just turned 39 yesterday and am female.Have a 5and 7 Y/o. Are you sun sensitive the entire week or just a day or two after pills. How long do people take this? Does PA go into remission? Is there a med that has fewer side effects and doesn't make you sun sensitive. How often should i have blood work. I don't have another app't for six weeks.Did any one else get a yeast infection?(ladies)did yogurt work or do treat more agressively? And does it come back often if your on MTX long term.? Sorry for all the questions but I have been miserable this week, with not much improvement in PA and not liking the idea of another few weeks like this one befor calling it quits on this med. I have good RX ins. Thanks to all of you and your sharing. I finally had some hope when i found this site after dx given that i wasn't a hypochondriac or wimp.
