Hi. Do side effects of methotrexate get better with time?? on week 6 of treatment with mehotrexate and side effects (diarrhea, nausea and hair falling) are getting worse. and does anyone here has psoriatic arthritis ?

Irascible septuagenarian fed up with the psoriasis constantly at me :wink:

Metho can be horrendous and there is a far more modern alternative known as Otezla. It has been working wonders for me including the wretched PA.

thanks ; meantime the blood tests results are in and there is a slight elevation of globulin alpha-2 so I guess we need to reconsider the med :-(
