Infliximab Infusions Vs Injections

Hi all, my RA team are discussing the possibility of switching me to Infliximab and I'm just a little confused as to any reasons/benefits of continuing this via infusion or switching to self injecting? Can anyone help with this as to whether one is better for the other? Frustratingly, whilst my current Amgevita (adalimumab) is working well for my colitis, it's not helping my joints despite my blood levels all now within normal limits!

I personally have had no results from infusions,3 different meds,but when the same meds are subq. injected I get massive relief. I have AS,erosive osteoarthritis in hands and feet.
