Hi all
Thanks for the replies.
I took two doses (on wednesdays) then went for bloods the day after the second dose. Felt ok, no nausea not too bad. But then the consultant phoned because my liver function tests were sky high! She told me to stop taking them and have a retest - they’ve came down to nearly normal.
She put it down to me having a cough/cold. She also told me not to go for bloods for a couple of days after a methotrexate dose cos that can give false readings.
I started them again last night, feel fine today. I’ll go for bloods a week on friday.
Interestingly my psoriasis started improving as soon as I stopped the acitretin!
