Hi ya

I'm on methotrexate n embrel. Started enbrel about 15mintgs ago. It was the one thing that actually did anything. ive had no side effects, bld issues etc n am pretty much in remission from it. I know everybody is different but it really has been my 'wonder' drug. Hope it does the same for you. Good luck x

i have been on Enbrel for eight years. It has been a life saver. I have had no adverse side effects, I am now back to walking several miles a day and feel great. I hope it works as well for you. Good luck xx

Hi, I had to stop Humira after the second injection due to side effects. Started on Enbrel which worked great for me with no side effects. I had to stop it twice due to other health issues and when l started it again the Enbrel injections stopped working. I am now waiting to be assessed for Tocilizumab at the end of the month. Good luck I am sure you will be fine. Take care. S

Humira just didn't help at all but great results when I moved to Enbrel. Have been on this now for about 6 years and only very occasionally need an anti-inflammatory. Fingers crossed that it is as effective for you. Best wishes Jude

I have been on enbrel for six years and it helps a lot , no side effects appart from infections now and then which is the only draw back

Good luck

Thank you for all the replys. This sounds a promising injection,I will cross my fingers. Just been to see the biologics nurse and I start it in a couple of weeks. My blood pressure is high and she thinks it could be all the pain and could explain why I have felt so rubbish past few weeks x
