Guest guest Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 Hi all, I was off my MTX for awhile due to illness. Over the past three weeks, I have been gradually increasing to my normal dose of 20 mg. I had almost forgotten about the horrific headache I get with MTX when I get above 15 mg. Any suggestions for something to help with the headache? I wear sunglasses constantly to help with the photophobia (light sensitivity) that comes along with the MTX, but the headache is bad enough that I question taking the MTX again next week. (It's that love/hate relationship with MTX...knowing that it helps, hating the side effects.) I'm also on Humira, Mobic, Folic acid, Levothyroxine (Hashmito's thyroid) and Triamterene (water pill for autoimmune Meniere's disease.) I also take garlic, turmeric, flax seed supplements, as well as a multivitamin. I've also just started a blogspot called BAMarthritis at www.bamarthritis.blogspot.com. Please check it out!
