If you are taking it methotrexate for rheumatoid arthritis, you are doing it to reduce the destructive effects that your own immune system is having on cartilage in your joints and other connective tissue. Methotrexate need to be taken along with folic acid as it takes folic acid out of the system. People that use methotrexate need to be checked regularly with blood test to see if there is any toxin build up in the kidneys. However if you have been incorrectly diagnosed it hardly matters as the side effects ( and there are heaps of them) would be the same either way.
