I have had RA for almost ten years now. Nothing seems to help I am on methotrexate 8 pills 1x week, cymbalta 120 mg everyday folic acid some other pill and a half everyday mad rituxin infusions every 6 months.

Has anyone ever gone to a chiropractor or had acupuncture for their RA??

I'm also interested to know if anyone has seen a chiropractor as part of their treatment.

I have just had my second Orencia infusion and I hurt so bad. Extreme fatigue can't stay awake and feel like a truck hit me. Any advice ?

I was on orencia last year and had to stop it because I felt like you do after the 2nd infusion and I won't go back on it. But that is everybody's individual choice but remember there are alot more biologic out there to try. Discuss this with ur dr and see what he thinks. Good Luck.
