flare/relapse on Amgevita

[bathouse]

Hello

I’ve been on Amgevita for 14 weekend (7 injections)

Results have been amazing until a couple of weeks ago when I have been so fatigued, joint pain, sacroilitis flared knees and hips feeling warm. Started with wrist pain that I’ve never had before.

Anyone else had flares whilst on Amgevita? So worried that it has stopped working, hopefully it’s a flare that will get better?

Any advice welcome

Thanks

Sue

I still get flares, been on amgevita since January 23, they’re not quite as bad as before but my blood numbers show the ESR/CRP and for some reason my liver enzymes hit over 100 and take a few months to come back down. X

I have had occasional flares on many of my treatments in the last 30+ years of RA. They may be related to other things like a certain food or too much exercise. It is only when they occur a lot that I was concerned and notified my RA team. Keeping a diary or using an app can help spot triggers.

Don't worry but you are right to be alert for changes. Be well
