Just back from Respiratory consultation and they have agreed for me to start Biological treatment because of my RA, As it so happened I was in so much pain this morning I could not do simple breathing tests and it made their decision easier and they highlighted the severe risks and possible Lung infections but have stressed the my Lungs will be monitored at all times at the start hopefully it won't be long just waiting on a phone call.

Good news Matt, I hope you get the right one first time, I had a lot of fears going on Anti Tnf, but all of them were unfounded, plus the weekly monitoring helps, good luck with it all and I hope you are better soon
Hi Mattcass,
Great news that you have been offered the Biologic treatment. NRAS has a publication on biologics which you can download or request by post here: nras.org.uk/publications/bi... or the NRAS Helpline team also have lots of information on the individual Biologic drugs once your team have chosen the right one for you.
Wishing you all the best for your new treatment.
