Since being on methrotex tablets--- I notice I have developed a keen sense of smell like cooking all the time and burnt cooking not mine though and bad indigestion and many more trips to the loo makes me wonder is it doing any good, anyone else get any of this

    I thought it was just me!

    I am really over-sensitive to certain smells - often fragrances in household products which I have used for years suddenly become so unbearable that if I use them I wasnt to retch. not much fun when You're just washing up or washing your hands!

    It seems to come and go though - but i have noticed that it seems to be more of a problem with stronger smells, and when i have just had a period without taking the MTX, or when I have had a dose increase (like now!)
