I wouldn't be put off by what you read or hear, I was also given azathioprine which caused me pancreatitis, this only happens to about 2% of people who take the drug, so it's the same with mtx, I'm one of those that has an intolerance to medication, you on the other hand might not get any side effects all and it could be a total success. So try to be positive is the best advice I can give and not give into what you read.

Have you tried Humira? or is the crohns under control?
I couldn't keep anything down on azathioprine ( what little I was eating)
