Leflunomide and how long it's taken to work?
I've tried Hydroxy, Cimzia and
Abatacept
and then the Toci. I'm also taking meloxicam and preds right now whilst I'm trying to find the right drugs for me. My consultant felt that changing tact and trying Leflunomide with the mtx might be worth a go.

Abatacept will be my 5th biologic 😕
Absolutely petrified of starting this new med as I reacted so badly to the last one and ended up in an ambulance to A&E. I wish I could cope without the treatments but know for a fact I cant. Had two days not able to walk and use my hands so it's a must. As anyone had good results from this injection

Shingles
I had my first infusion of
abatacept
Friday before last. Second one is this Thursday. Am also on 20 mg methotrexate, plus hydroxychloroquine and amatripyline. I was told to avoid anybody with chickenpox or shingles.

Tocilizamab infusions/injections advice please ...
I've previously tried 2 other biologics, Cimzia and
Abatacept
which didn't help enough. I always injections at night but on one occasion I forgot and injected the following morning. All that day I felt awful, similar to the post infusion side effects but it only lasted about 12 hours.

Just got to keep going.....
Abatacept
plus MTX was working great for me earlier on in the year. I had a throat infection for a short while, stopped meds for a couple of weeks. But in that time the RD just went mental and refused to be kicked back down, even with oodles of steroid injections.

Tocilizumab and side effects
This is my third biological having failed on Cimzia and
Abatacept
. I didn't have any problems with them. I always injected at night except on one occasion when I forgot to take it and took it first thing the next morning and I did feel washed out after that, so I probably slept it off every time.

Frustrated
Don't thing the
abatacept

All change....
Seems the
abatacept
doesn't suit me so he was very helpful, so new plan : continue with the radiotherapy on hands, stop
abatacept
and start Ritiximab . Continue leflunomide and re commence mtx and folic acid . Blood work next week.

Refusing To Take Steroids
After another 9 months waiting for funding I was put on Humira, then I was put on Enbrel, then Tocilimab and then finally
Abatacept
. All of theses drugs, with the exception of Tocilimub, worked either very, very well to moderate relief.

UK wide research into the prevention or delay of onset of RA.
Research opportunity across the UK The APIPPRA study (Arthritis Prevention in the Pre-Clinical Phase of RA with
Abatacept
) is a UK wide 2 year study which aims to test whether medication already licensed for use in RA can prevent or delay the onset of the disease.

Abatacept
( until the pain worsened again lol) Hoping you all good! X A

Steroid tablets
When my last Bio,
Abatacept
, showed signs of not working back in Oct last year my Consultant, the lovely Dr Armstrong, told me there was nothing new for me..... I was desolate to be honest. I had an appointment with him on Tuesday and he confirmed his original diagnosis, no more Bio's for me.
