I took it as directed of ten days, and started to feel funny. I returned to the doctor, and after reviewing my signs and symptoms, the diagnosis was made that I had medication induced CHF (congestive Heart Failure), I am now on additional pills, and have to have my labs checked regularly to make sure everything is ok! Stay away if you...

FANTASTIC! i SUFFERED so long with pain in my hands and arms. My doctor wrote me a subscription for this medicine and I was very skepital about it. I tried it and I've not had the pain I had, I would never even think about taking anything else. It did NOT take long for me to see the improvements in my hands and arms. I can type better, and write letters, where as before I started taking celebrex, I had a hard time holding a pen. — I would recomend this to everyone. I do believe that this medicine had given me back the chance to do the things I love to do. Write, crochet and type, without the pain I was experiencing before. Thank you phfzer!!! —...

I have taken Methotrexate for 6+ years now and wish I had known of it sooner. — Before starting this drug I could barely get up in the morning. My feet constantly ached and I couldn't stand up straight until after about 10 minutes of constan momement. My hands & fingers were just as bad, stiff & constantly aching. In my 30's I felt like I had the body of a 90 yr old. Since taking Methotrexate I have much better movement, can stand straight right away, have few days with any pain and can work on a computer all day. I am on a pretty low dosage and so far I have not had any side effects from this drug. I am taking it with Folic Acid to help prevent the hair thinning or loss. —...

The lupus attacks my joints just like having arthritis, but instead of stopping there my immune system goes on to attack my muscles, connective tissue, skin and organs. My doctor suggested I try this 2 or 3 years ago. But I was afraid because I new that it was a mild chemotherapy drug and I was afraid of the side effects. The only side effects I have had is a slight thinning of my hair and I used to get very tired about 2 hours after I took it, and had to take a nap. I fixed this by taking at night when I want to go to sleep anyway. It really has had a great effect on my Lupus. I ALMOST feel normal. I still have my bad days, but I have more good days now than bad days now, and that's... Tue, 21 Aug 2007 02:15:10 GMT http://www.viewpoints.com/Methotrexate-review-49a7 megdzw 5
