I have psoriatic arthritis and Im on Cosentyx and Otezla …. Works for me not a cure but does help … one thing to remember don’t just stop taking biologics the backlash could be worse.

What are you going to take Cimzia for?

Seron negative R.A. which means there's nothing in bloodwork or xrays that suggets I have an autoimmune. Dr. going off symptoms only. I 'm scared to death of all the side effects, so I think I'll turn down trying Cimzia.

Are you seeing a Rheumatologist? What exactly are you experiencing to make him want to try Cimzia.

Not all blood test sadly will show positive for Arthritis sometimes like myself you can have arthritis without positive testing and suffer dearly because of it (I have Psoriasis) took 2 years, 3 Rheumatologist and severe pain before I got a diagnosis of psoriatic arthritis.
