Perhaps it's in my head, but I take my MTX on Thursday nights and about Tuesday night or Wednesday morning I feel like crap. I didn't really notice this until It was pointed out to me by a friend. Wednesday's seem to be a "bad" day and I'm wondering if it is because my MTX is due?
Am I nuts? LOL you are not nuts. What you are experiencing happens to a lot of us. Not everyone...but some of us. I know that the day before I am due for my shot is harder than other days. I can't wait for my shot the next day! Then it's all ahhhhhhh. I would rather be waiting on that shot for one day than have no good days at all!I also know the day before med day, sometimes 2 days before.me too. not so much that I need it, but boy if I dont take it on friday afternoon, I am sure aware saturday ..
I guess this proves that the MTX is starting to help me. It really didn't happen until I upped the dose to 20 mg. I guess that's good news, huh? LOL
Thanks for writing back. It's so nice to hear from people with experience.
Dear dk, you aren't nuts and I think like you do 'hey this must be working'....I've been known to take my pills in 6 days , instead of 7, that is the good part about pills you can 'adjust' them to your needs. Sarah We can play with our injection days by maybe a day or 2. I have done a day early when I have been super bad before.I can definately tell. I always take mine on Saturday's and toward the end of the week I start to get run down.
It's not in your head.
I can really tell too. I take mine in Friday evening and I start huting on thursday, and think 'oh no-why is this hurtings/' then realize it's almost Friday. so it will be fine.
