3rd dose of MTX last night and haven't been able to get off the sofa all day......have spent all afternoon watching a film (stepmom...which just made me cry)...any idea how long all this lasts ....do you ever get used to this drug and not feel tired all the time...have also had a few dizzy spells on it and keep feeling like my heart is beating too fast...any one else had any of this?

i feel not quite "with it" the day or two after i take the mxt (been on it about 4months) and the first 3 months felt very sick, tired, very upset,headachy, just not right at all. the rhumy gave me extra folic acid and told me to split the dose which has helped quite a bit. do you just feel like this a day or two after taking the mxt?0
