I know when you all saw the first part of the headline you wondered what i was up to now. Well i have been to hospital and had my first two doses of cimzia given. I even done it myself and it was so easy to do. Just like injecting mtx. Next one in two weeks time, hopefully i will start to feel better. Here's hoping. Hope you are all well.;xxxxx

At long last!!! I saw your message just as my Tesco delivery was here so had to wait until I packed it all away. I am so pleased for you and I sincerely hope that it's the magic potion that you have been waiting for. Does this mean you will now do your 'pricks' at home in future or do you have to keep going to the hospital?

Take care. xxx

Hi Sylvi,

Well done, I hope it really does wonders for you. I too injected my first dose of Cimzia just under a fortninght ago and am due my second lot this weekend. So far, so good, no side effects, just struggling with fatigue but that seems to be par for the course for me anyway.

Take care,

Mags x

The next two lots have to be done at the hospital and then it will be down to me to do them weekly i believe.xxx

You seriously deserve to get a wonderful result from this drug. Wishing you the very best of luck with it. Luce xx
