I have been diagnosed with Polymyalgia Rheumatica & am about to start taking Methotrexate(MTT)?

Posted on 13-Aug-2023 - Last updated: 13-Aug-2023

Since the Prednisone (10mg daily) alone is not reducing the inflammation of the disease, as per my CRP blood test results, my Doctor has recommended the Methotrexate. But as I read the side effects of the drug, I am on the fence as to if I should take the MTT or deal with the pain. Has anyone had any experience with this drug? I would appreciate any comments or suggestions. Thanks
