Flips Betas Off

*Chicken**Chicken*
in TTC after 35

So I went to my Re yesterday to have an ultrasound done to see if he could see any remaining tissue.  He didn't find anything.  I had another beta draw which came back 315 (my last beta was over 200).  Angry   Dr says that there's tissue hanging out somewhere but not where they can see it.  So now I have to go and have a methotrexate injection that, they say, will kill any remaining tissue and will bring my betas down like they should.  I hope so because this is freakin annoying!!!!

Anyone have experience with methotrexate?   Where the s/e bad? 

TIA

    I don't have experience, but I am so sorry. {{hugs}} 
    I give up trying to get a ticker.  I have a DD that is 2.5 years old and is awesome.  Maybe I'll add a quote to distinguish myself.  Hmmm.  How about...

    Dear GOD will the beta madness stop already?!?!?

    I did not do the methotrexate, so I can't help there.

    Just wanted to say I'm ready to kick some beta a$$ with you.

    Sorry this is going on like this. It sucks.

    Yes, Joy, I'm ready for some beta a$$ kicking!  Super Angry  

    My husband came home yesterday and I was ranting to him about it. So he just say there listened to me and then saysl 'it'll be okay'. So I said to him 'Can you at least pretend to be annoyed about this too?!?!?!?'  he just rolled his eyes at me.  Sheesh, as if being level headed about this stuff is okay!  Hmmmpf! Hmm

    There are times when calm, rational thought is in order. But I do not think this is one of them!

    Also, I am not sure if it is physically possible. At least for me, until my betas - aka, hormone levels - were back to normal, I was not quite myself emotionally.

    So, let's put on our black leather jackets and start swinging some chains!

    Betas, you goin' down!

    I'm in the mood to be violent towards something so lets go - Beta's you don't stand a chance against a bunch of angry hormonal women.

    So sorry, that really sucks. I had mtx back in sept and no side effects. The thing that does suck is you have to wait 2 months before you can ttc again (the mtx can cause serious harm to the fetus if you got pg). Hang in there, yur betas should start going down now!
    1 ectopic 3 m/c's prior to 5/05 Un-freaking-explained IF 5/05 IVF, BFN 9/05 FET 3d5e, BFP = Beautiful Baby Girl (lucky pg #5) 8/08 Fet 3d5e, cp 12/08 IVF with PGD, transfer 3, BFN 5/09 FET transfer 4, BFN Hail Mary IUI with Follistim 9/11 BFP; 9/22 confirmed tubal/MTX 4/10 FET 3d5e, BFP!!!! m/c 5/26/10 1 year break and yet another m/c 5/11 FET #5 initial beat 121, second beta 7 Lap and removal of L tube and very mild endo 7/11 Suprise BFP 12/11 & m/c @ 8 wks. After 11 losses and one beautiful miracle our journey is over, we are thankful and at peace.

    MAH, I was thinking about this but I realized that when I start taking my next round of injections it will be 3 months from this shot (provided my period arrives in a timely manner). So ill be good.
