What is chemotherapy like?

Right now I'm being kept alive with lots of Prednisone, furosemide and lovenox but it's not enough because my lung rejection is steroid-resistant. Soon I'm going to start a round of methotrexate to try putting my disease in remission. Has anyone here been on this chemo before? What was it like? How bad are the side effects? Is my hair going to fall out? Any advice appreciated, thanks

Did your doctors and nurses explain what to expect? I hope you recover well. 😔🧡

@Colonelmustardseed nope and thank you!
@angoranimi Wow. They should have. Mine gave me a booklet of info on what they gave me, explaining what to expect. Unfortunately, I don’t think it was methotrexate. So I can’t give insight to what might happen.
I really hope you get well as soon as possible. 😔
