I take methotrexate (20mg/week) along with plaquenil and just recently started humira. My ra doc and primary doc have me on 1cc of vitamin b12 each week and I am feeling better. I give myself the shot which is the same size as an insulin needle.

Sleeping problems used to plaque me. I found that my problems were getting worse because of a condition that most doctors don't test for, leaky gut syndrome.


I have an awesome meal planner sheet that gets you back on track and gives you an energy boost.

I have been taking methotrexate for 3 months and am starting to experience severe depression. I have post traumatic stress disorder and cannot tell if this is just an abnormally serious flare up or if it's being triggered by the medication. I am desperate to know if anyone else is experiencing these same side effects.

Thanks!

I also take 20mg. of methotrexate weekly, and am very fatigued the day I get the needle, I am not too bad the day after, but I am tired all the time, my ra Dr. is having having blood work done to see if my b12 is low. I know how you feel I could sleep 24\7, although I have to work part time so I do have to get up and get moving when I have to work. I also have fibromialga, I am not sure which is more painful, I think the fibro. may win. Take care and hang in there!!!
