Don't forget to the folic acid on all days except the day you take mtx. If you take them the same day, the folate negates the effect of the mtx. I never had a problem with mtx like you've had, it just started to help after a month or so. Now I know it's working because I lose ground if I have to stop for 2 weeks to take antibiotics for infection. I took 7.5 for a week, then 15 mg for the rest of the time. Hope you are feeling better soon. It almost has to be a new flare, unrelated to mtx.
