    I had both for 2 years, (mtx 25mg and sulfa 3g/day).

    It made me heaps better for quite awhile, but still didn't hold the damage in check, hence I have just started enbrel too.

    Usual side-effects from mtx - tiredness, upset stomach, nausea. None particularly I was aware of from the sulfa. Side effects at the end of the day still better than uncontrolled disease.

    What else can you do but take the meds and be damned!

    Good luck anyway. Hope it gives you a better quality of life. It certainly did me.
