Hey everyone...
These last two weeks i've been horribly stiff in the mornings and throughout the day. I'm not sure if it might be the change in weather in NYC or all the rain we've gotten; who knows! Last week I did start taking methotrexate and folic acid, as an addition to plaquenil, naprosyn. I was wondering how fast do you feel the effectiveness of the mtx and when can i look forward to some relief! I would love to hear well see everyone's input! Have a great day everyone!

Sorry to hear about your increase in pain

For me, MTX took a couple of months to kick in and start helping my joint pain but when it did I could tell a difference in my pain levels. I hope it doesn't take that long for you. Hang in there, take care and keep us posted on how you are doing.
