Xeljanz and knee pain

[ragurl]

I was on Humira and leflunomide which was working great, but due to mouth ulcers doctor switched me to Xeljanz. After 5 weeks still experiencing severe knee pain, fatigue and sore throat. Just added leflunomide back 1 week. Xeljanz has helped remove nodules that I have had for 15 years so it is doing some good but not sure it's worth staying on due to knee pain, fatigue and constant sore throat. Anybody relate ? Should I ask to change back to humira or will Xeljanz get better ? Help?

I switched to the xeljanz two pills a day from co , gave me headache, now the two pills a day ,I seem to have allergy . Or is it the pills? I am wondering myself..my skin skin is also peeling on fingers..any one have this..my ra doc already said call her with ? S..so maybe call your doc..stomach nausea can cause problems . Or create them. Good luck

Thank you Cynthia,

Yes, I take note - The Sulfalasazine without Omprezole - my own fault for letting off the Omprezole in recent months. Is Exljanx a substitute / equivalent for Baricitinib ?

Do you get acid reflux ? Do you take Omprezole ?
