Hi Everyone, First post from me. Following failed attempts with DMARDS, I have been started on Amgevita this week. I had high hopes after the research I did but have been struggling with side effects of nausea, dizziness and headache. I have read through other posts where most people describe no side effects or severe…

hi all 👋 Has anyone had a problem with the sun and methotrexate? We’re off to Greece (booked before the diagnosis as a family wedding, and being prescribed the mtx) Can I stop the mtx whilst I’m away to stop the potential burning? I use factor 50 anyway, as I’m pale and can still burn. I know that if I get a cold, covid or…
I have been on Methotrexate for almost 11 months now, by Metoject injections. Apart from feeling a bit "below par" the day after the injection I haven't had any side effects since my Folic Acid was increased from 1 tablet a week to 3. My R.A. symptoms/pain haven't improved so just before Christmas I started on Yuflyma as…

Hi, I've just joined this group. I've had Psoriatic Artthritis for around 30 years. In the 1990s my GP tried 3 different tablets. Unfortunately each had a bad side effect (Liver, Eyes, Clinical Depression) So all were stopped.. I lived with it, but over the last year more fingers and other joints have got much worse.…
Has anyone had this please? Gives me really bad indigestion/heartburn/ acid reflux not really sure which one of those it is, looking at the side effects it doesn't really mention it. I'll be calling rheumatology obviously, but just wondered if anyone had it and what they did to alleviate it
Hi there! I just wanted to share a little of my experience in the hopes it might benefit someone else experiencing this side effect. I've been on Methotrexate for my psoriatic arthritis for 10 months now and while my health has seen much improvement I've struggled with non stop aggressive acne. I've tried all spot…
I’ve taken my first dose of 15mg today (3rd dose overall) and I feel like I’ve got a bad cold without the nose troubles. I’ve had a headache for hours and slowly increasingly feeling like I’m burning up but I’ve got no reason to be ill. I don’t have any infected cuts or anything and I’ve not knowingly been around anyone…
Hi there, Does anyone else get these side effects with Sulfasalazine, am new to taking them and the side effects are bad, suffering with terrible nausea and headaches. Wondering if anyone has any tips and also if they reduce over time (even when having to increase my dose over the coming weeks?) thanks
Hi guys, I (28f) was initially on Methotrexate oral from January to April as I was getting real bad sickness after the first three months. I've now been on the injection version from May but I got the same sickness and brain fog (and headaches) after my most recent dose. They did up my dose from 15ml to 20ml but it hasn't…
