Hello,
I am due to start chemo soon, I am unsure which form of Methotrexate I will be prescribed.
Looking for those who have tried the tablets or oral solutions. I am hoping I wont have to do the at home injections but just curious on all fronts what your side affects where. I have seen a lot of about headaches but not a lot about hair loss or vomit. Im really confused and nervous.
thanks.

Hello and a very warm welcome to the online community
Although I haven't had chemotherapy I was passing and noticed that your post had gone unanswered. It's perfectly normal to feel confused and nervous when you're facing any form of treatment.
I have found this information for you from Macmillan which explains all about methotrexate, from how it's administered to possible side effects.
If you feel comfortable telling me what type of cancer you're being treated for I could recommend a group for you to join so that you can share experiences with other people undergoing chemotherapy.
When you have a minute it would be really useful if could pop something about your journey so far into your profile as it really helps others when answering or looking for someone with a similar diagnosis. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Edit Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
I hope the treatment goes well.
