Members responded to a question about bloating from methotrexate and Mobic, with several sharing that they have experienced the same uncomfortable symptom, describing feeling so bloated they look pregnant or cannot bend at the waist, despite not gaining weight. Many members also mentioned other side effects they have noticed, including headaches, nausea for days after taking methotrexate, and feeling unwell shortly after starting the medications. A recurring theme was the tension between trusting personal experience and following medical advice, as well as the importance of being cautious about mixing these medications with alcohol.

I made the mistake of having two beers with friends after my meds on Saturday, not sure if this has affected me or weather i am having a reaction to the steroid injection. i remembered later that i was warned not to drink alcohol on the day of the meds taking....

This is so odd. I have been on both, with other meds, for about the same time and I almost look like I am pregnant. I have not gained weight and feel bloated...hmm. I now have to investigate my meds again
