Cimzia anyone ?

Hi, I'm due to start cimzia and wondered how anyone else got on with it ?

I've had all sorts of DMARDS , pain relief and steroids and nothing is really working .

It's nearly 2 years since I was diagnosed .

When I broke my wrist the orthopaedic chap said there was a lot of damage on the X-ray making the diagnosis of a break difficult and now I have new swelling and joint stiffness in other smaller joints .

I had a steroid injection in the ankle which sadly failed and the other ankle is just as bad .

I'm hoping that this cimzia will help put on some sort of path to managing it .

Thank you for taking the time to read this .

Becky .
