Hello,

I am the same as you. I have tried 3 different DMARDS. I have had reactions from all of those. I am hopefully going onto Biologics soon. I am going on Monday to see the BIologics nurse.

I am in agony today and I am very swollen and stiff. I hope you get the go ahead for them too.

Yes yesterday I was feeling a bit better and thought I'm might contemplate going back to work in glad I didn't today I can hardly walk and have no energy at all but I suppose this is why this disease is so hard to cope with

After failing DMARD treatments, Enbrel worked great for me!

All the best to you!
