Methotrexate Side Effects: Anyone Else Feel Sick?

Does methortrexate make anyone else feel so sick? I feel sick at the thought of even taking it, then the next day I'm so nauseous. I have a medication review next week. What else do other people take as an alternative? Methortrexate just makes me feel so rubbish x

I take iron tablets too but I was told its because the methotrexate uses a lot of iron from your body

I'm on methotrexate but I inject mine, I asked because I was told that the oral version messes with your stomach and I had resently had my gallbladder removed when I was being put on it, I Take Hydrochloroquine orally and also Idacio (that's the manufacturers name can't remember the actual name) it's a biological drug and I inject it too
