Hi,
I take the pills, not the injections. But, I have that kind of queasy feeling all week too. The only thing that I've found that helps at all is to not let myself get too hungry. Kind of hard when you're feeling a bit queasy... but if I get too hungry, it makes it worse. Have you considered increasing the amount of folic acid you're taking?
But also, my doctor put me on Nexium because she felt that a lot of the queasy feeling was being caused by acid reflux which is being caused by the methotrexate. Apparently acid reflux can manifest itself as queasiness. And really, I've been somewhat better since starting the Nexium a few weeks ago.
