MDJunction to me

Kelti"MDJ has been a saving grace for me. It has taken from me that feeling of being so alone in the management of my Bipolar Disorder. I am not alone any more!! The friends on MDJ that I have made have kept me going. I am more at peace with myself now, thanks to all the people here on MDJ. I thank  God for each one of them.  MDJunction  is the place of Hope." (Kelti)

I am at 12 weeks on a low dose (10mg a week) of MTX. This last week I have been draggy, spaced out, and very tired, and a bit of nausea. Before this, I seemed to tolerate it well.

I am also celiac and think I might have minorly glutened myself early in the week (ate some candy with no gluten ingredients but possibly made on glutened equipment).

Is it possible for side effects to get worse as you go ? From what I read it should be the other way around. I am very tired & forgetful...ugh.

I don't see my rheumy until April 18 so I won't stop taking it but I feel pretty crappy!! Sick
