Hi @Bron123
Welcome to the online community. I'm sorry to hear that you've been experiencing a recent flare with your RA, which meant a change to your methotrexate treatments. A lot of people do experience itchy skin as a side effect when taking methotrexate, but if this continues please do seek help from your GP or rheumatologist.
I've included some links below on methotrexate which hopefully you will find useful.
Its good to see you posting here, this is a good place to be, and you're not alone.
Lovely to meet you!
Helen
