After trying to get Enbrel , and not getting any funding to help pay for it right now.
My doctor is now checking on a different drug called Simponi Aria . And wants to do IV infusions ! He's thinking the insurance may pay more if it's a IV infusion!!
Any way just wondering if any one has any information on taking it??? Thanks!!!
I'm afraid I haven't got experience of that one, I'm on Orencia infusions and go into the hospital day unit. They make sure I am well first then put up the I've, some take up to 8 hours but mine is just one hour, an hour recovery that is DIY with a cup of tea and then home. But I don't know of your specific treatment. But good luck with it and hope this treatment is the one for you!
Are you in the US? You may have more luck with a response if you google search for a USA RA forum, this forum is UK based and funding issues are very different and some of the drugs may differ or have different names.
Yes I am in the USA, I got approved for Enbrel by my insurance , but my copay was still a lot of money!! All the RA assistance groups are out of money until the first of the year!, and that is to long to wait for treatment!!
I will check and see if there is any USA RA forum!, Thanks!,
You could try Creaky Joints - I believe they have a good forum and are US based.
Has anyone tried Jyseleca?
If I move out if the area will I still get my Simponi?
MY MOM HAS RA. TRYING TO LEARN ABOUT THE DISEASE. 
Has anyone else developed severe anaemia from RA?
Anyone tried an elimination diet to see if different foods effect their RA?
