Different brands of Methotrexate
Hi all you experienced methotrexate warriors. I am preparing for my telephone rheumy appt tomorrow. My biologic is CIMZIA but it was not effective and so my rheumy added 15mg. methotrexate by injection. He prescribed for the first 3 months and I was given metoject and it worked marvellously with my inflammation

I am sometimes not even able to pick up a fork or brush my hair. The joints in my index finder have swelled enormous

Cimzia and Minor Eye Hemorrhage
I just started Cimzia this week with the first loading dose for comorbid RA and UC. The first 400mgs went fine except for painful (tiny!) hemorrhages in both my eyes. My eyes were very red and very painful, but did not swell or weep, and my vision was not at all affected. I went to my eye doctor and

Those who have had / are on Cimzia
...how long did it take for you to work please? Have had my 3 loading doses so am on week 5 but cannot feel its effects yet. When I first started Benepali it was a couple of weeks so I was hoping for this to work quickly too. I know it can take up to 12 weeks but was wondering anecdotally how it helped
