Benepali side effects

Hi I’ve just started Benepali and my pain seems worse the aches all over and the fuzzy head I have psoriatic arthritis and spine inflammation can’t remember the name of that one. Just wondering if what I’m feeling like anyone else has had and if it does improve

Thanks in advance

I do my Benepali injection at night just before bed and wonder if it means I sleep through the possible fuzzy head? Early days. Could your aches be a cold on it’s way / overdoing it a little? Keep a diary but don’t overthink and be positive! Best of luck.

I decided to do the Benepali injections on a night I work in construction and my job is getting harder and harder by the day I really don’t know what to do anymore. I’m only 31 i don’t want to not work but I don’t know how long I can carry on like this. The pain is getting worse hopefully these injections will help me. I will keep a diary that sounds like a good idea many thanks

Good plan. Keep positive and try to do all others things to help... good diet, exercise to your ability, maybe something to de-stress... read favourite book, meet a friend, go for a walk in a beautiful spot, have a spa treatment, talk to a friend.... you can also speak to your specialist in case he could give you something to tide you over... steroid shot, maybe? I always measure improvement by what I can now do that couldn’t when the RA at its worst ( open jars myself, do up laces, write, press button on my car key fob, use scissors)! Hoping you see improvements very soon.
