Trying to reclaim my body

Enbrel injections were prescribed about 2 yrs ago and seemed to work well for quite a few months but then my legs started to itch and feel so hot, had to bathe them in cold water and cream them--they drove me mad. Eventually stopped injections to see if that made a difference and boy did it,. Has anyone else had a reaction like this? Am seeing my specialist next month and would like to be better informed.
