Default B-12 Bad for Rhuematoid

My hubbie comes home from his monthly rheumatoid visit yesterday, he now has to start methatrexate as he is in powerfull pain. I go to the same guy, now I am wondering if I want to continue.
My husband tells him my wife has me on a good multi-vitamin, magneseum for the leg cramps and then this thing called methyl somethingorother B-12, the doc says "What!! Bring this to your next appointment, that's probably why you are not in remission. I can't tell you the damage folks do to themselves with supplements" he maintains all he needs is a multi, and I maintain this man is an idiot, even my neuro says take all you want, you can't take too much of this vitamin and go with the experts on your neurotalk, go with what works and maybe will help you more in the long run than anything I can prescribe. The biggest thing is it helps my husband and has since the first day he took it, I take it but can't pinpoint that it has improved my neuropathy but it sure hasn't gotten any worse in the last four years!
