Cimzia

[Swoodroffe]

I had my first loaded dose of Cimzia on Monday and I can not believe the difference it has made already. My wrists are pain free for the first time in two years. The pain has reduced in my feet, knee and shoulder. I was really feeling that the disease was taking over my body. This has made such a huge difference. I just hope it continues.

Hi Swoodroffe, Brilliant, I started Cimzia a couple of months ago and it has made a huge difference to my pain levels and inflammation. I have finished all the loading doses and down to single fortnightly injections, my energy levels have dropped slightly since starting on the single dose but the difference is still remarkable, I get some side effects, but nothing major.

Best Wishes.

Hi, I started cimzia 12 weeks ago only now I feel it's starting to kick in, I'd be intrested what side effects you've had,as iv had a few....good luck with it and I hope it helps you...

I have only just started one week in. So far no side effects. So fingers crossed. I did have side effects with methatrexate and lafluminad.

Hello Swoodroffe, I have been on CIMZIA for 6 years now and it's still working as well as at the beginning. I'm in remission and beginning to reduce other drugs. Hope it will works for you that well for years to come. All the very best.

That's great news. If I recall correctly, I had a very very quick response to cimzia too. Long may it last for you!

That is fabulous news. I'm glad you're finally getting some relief. I know how debilitating pain can be to us that suffer it daily. Hope and pray that this relief continues for you.
