Hi Jon.
Sorry about my bad English.
I used methatrexate for two differents periods,I mean, in two winters(when the disease get worst,in my case).This medicine must be used in a very close observation of the doctor.Before start it,the doctor ask a avaliation of the liver function(blood test).During the treatment,the blood test is continouslly repeated.The dosage is extremelly small,few miligrams for week and for few weeks of treatment.
I have a very good result.
At the summer time I get my best result at sun when my skin become normal.
I hope I had helped.I wish you a great improvment in your skin health.

I've had nail psoriasis for the last 12 years and in the last 2-3 years its devolped into psoriatic athritis. My hands and feet are now in quite a lot of pain and its spreading to my knees as well. My doctor has said I need to start taking a drug methatrexate. Does anyone have any experience of taking this drug?
