Hello Deb,

Just want to tell you my Methotrexate experience but whilst for me it was not good I do know that some people report improved deep muscle and joint ROM and Pain and little in the way of side effects.
I had been taking it for about 10 days when I started vomiting/diarrhoea etc.
My urine output had reduced to almost zero and I started convulsing.
In the early days I turned bright red at just the tiniest bit of sunlight too.
I guess it is up to a big discussion between you and your doctor and a willingness to find out what category you are going to be in.I wish you luck if you decide to go ahead.


Hey Mike,
I will be the first to put up my hand for ECT, when it becomes an accepted treatment here. We are close I think but my Pain Doctor has been wanting to try for a few years. It makes a huge amount of sense to me

Good luck guys
Tayla
