Hi Fred,

I’m on my third week of xeljanz and I feel much better already. Side effects were a bit of tummy ache and wind the first week but now nothing really. No pain now in my hands, elbows and knees or neck . Amazing. Good luck I hope it’s the same for you .

There have been quite a few comments on these newish JAK inhibitors. If you put tofacitinib

into the search box you should get the earlier comments.

My sister was originally on a trial (in France) and has done really well on it for several years now.

I’ve been on these for about 3 weeks now. No major side effects- a little tummy upset here and there. No problems so far. My energy levels are picking up. Still pain but inflammation is easing some.
