Methotrexate- how long before you feel bad side effects after taking your dose?

How long after you take mtx do you start to feel negative side effects? I took my first dose on Friday night (it's now Tuesday) and I have felt terrible all day. I felt almost normal the day after taking it, except for a headache and my lips were a little puffy. All day today I've been super tired and feel like I might pass out.
