I've also used methotrexate and boy, does
it ever pack a wallop in the beginning.
As the treatment progresses, your body will adjust and the fatigue
should start simmering down soon. With
any drug like this, it's a good idea to make sure that you eat regularly and
stick to a balanced diet, high in fruit and vegetables. I find that making the rest of me as healthy
as possible can help reduce the side effects a little bit. You can also speak to your doctor about it -
maybe you need to start at a lower dose and increase it gradually, giving your
body a chance to acclimatize over time.
Good luck with it!
