Hi @c1_
If you go to the small magnifier symbol on the tool bar top right, click on menopause and /or PsA and / or supplements you can find members discussions and advice sharing on loads of subjects which I hope you will find helpful. There are also information sheets on the VA website . Do get back to us when you have had a chance to explore, ask more questions and join in with conversations.
Best wishes

Hi Claire
What a lovely pic !
When I was on methotrexate the drs gave me folic acid to take , but I'm not sure if it depends on your bloods or not ,
I'm not on that now so I can't remember.
Hope you have something sorted out by now as I see this is from Dec.
Take care Poppy x
