Hi all, I've got rheumatoid arthritis, I've had it for years. After a major OP last year (which I talked on here and had lovely support) the trauma to my body set of RA more and I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. Methotrexate didn't work, just got horrible side effects and I'm not on sulfasalazine and leflunomide for it. I'm taking gabapentin for fibro.. thing is I've not started taking a fortnightly injection of amgevita which is a similar to humira. Is anyone on this??? Is it helping or do you just having crap side effects like me?? Bad headaches, blocked nose/sinus, sore throat, aching and completely wiped out? πŸ™„ so fed up of myself xx

I am on Amgevita, but still have another several weeks to know if it works for me. Wiped out due to uncontrolled RA and steroids. Going to bed shortly, hope you get some encouraging responses!
