Sorry to hear. Cimzia locks infection in a bit. Etanercept washes out quickly and a fusion protein so fewer probs. Or Baracitinib a JAK, tab that washes out in 2 days. Good luck 👍

Sorry to hear that. I was on Imraldi which worked perfectly fr 3 months, then just stopped, so was changed to Cimzia. Have been taking it for 3 months with no improvement, in fact a deterioration but also no side effects. Have a phone appointment with the reheumatologist next week, so we will see but horrible, isn't it.

I have been on Cimzia for over three years now. It works for me, but all bodies are different, I was exercising at the gym 5 days a week before the pandemic, I still do some exercise such as walking or going up and down the stairs 5 times or more. You also have to change your diet and eat foods that are good for arthritis. Certain foods cause inflammation. Hope this helps. More importantly you have to move your body to keep the joints lubricated.
