Methotrexate side effects

Redmile

i have been on 15mg Methotrexate for 2 years for Rheumatoid arthritis and had no real side effects and was told it was working well. Then about 2 months ago I started to have a reaction about 30 mins after taking it. My whole body seems to tingle and my hands and feet swell and itch terribly. It lasts for about 3/4 hours before calming down and the following day I feel really unwell. I have not been taking any new medication. Just wondered if anyone else has experienced this

Morning @redmill and welcome to the online community.

Sorry to heahear youyour conconcerns about MTX. I was taken off MTX due to raised enzymes in liver.

Have you spoken to your doctors?

Personally I would take photos if possible and keep a record of your new side effects.

Best wishes and I am sure others will connect with you soon.@
