Hello Doctor I Have Taken Methotrexate For About A Year

Hello Doctor
I have taken methotrexate for about a year and half
i started out taking 6 [2.5] mg once a week
After 9 MONTHS the doctor cut it to 2 {2.5 mg } a week
I am taking it for my skin.
I was taken off it once for 6 weeks as it was effecting my liver count
I have had a dry cough for over a year
A month ago I came down with a very bad cold and congestion and cough and everything else that goes with it. I did go to the doctor after 21/2 weeks and they gave me an antibiotic
I feel better now but have been so tired the last couple of weeks. I go to work and come home and just want to sit which is not like me
I read the list of side effects which some of them i might experience slightly but the dry cough is every day
my regular doctor says my throat is fine
what do you think? Thank you
