could Cimzia cause Loss of sensation, numbness and tingling, paresthesias, sensory loss, tingling and numbness?
If anyone else has had this what was the next course of treatment offered to you?

Friends and RA
Having started a low dose of pred just over 2 weeks ago before starting my
cimzia
I'm feeling lots better and it really is such a relief and I know you'll all understand how wonderful it feels to be emerging from a major flare.

who or what is "healthcare at home", can't get responses to my e-mails, can't get a phonecall answered.
My last delivery from them of
Cimzia
injection was in February, won't answer phone, nor acknowledge e-mails, my last injection was 5th March so missed my 19th injection, and still can't get a response. Failed even to get a rheumatology response, so am suffering extreme pain now.

Started Cimzia yesterday
Although I'm used to injecting methotrexate, I had read a few things about
Cimzia
that had made me a little anxious.

Thanks to everyone who responded to my Anaemia/cancer worries: I'm delighted to say that after various tests over the past 21 weeks, I have
Also I'm going to give Humira a try in the autumn, now I've got over the horrors of
Cimzia
and finally feel up to trying something else. So a huge thank you to everyone who took the time and care to reply to me.

West Pennines abysmal changes
Since Xmas I have had no medication due to a severe reaction to
Cimzia
. During the past 3 months I have been tested for fibrosis and now I'm told phew I don't have that but now apparently I have nodules on my lung and they are referring me to a chest specialist.

So........ what now?
Yesterday I had an appointment with my Rheumy nurse - I have been have a rough time and I had made a decision to come off the
cimzia
as I hate needles (I can cope with the methoject!) and to be honest it didn't help.

Humira (adalimumab)
I came off my first anti TNF (
cimzia
) a month or so ago due to side effects. I went to rheum today who told me that I was due to start Humira (adalimumab) in 2 weeks as soon as Healthcare at Home get in touch. What a shock!

Leflunomide dose question
I had
cimzia
added in August but the injections were stopped a few weeks ago due to side effects. The plan is to try another anti TNF but I finish my degree at the end of May and I don't want to go on another anti TNF before then in case it makes me poorly again.

might be offered cimzia but unsure.......
After having 2 high DAS's my rheumy nurse has interviewed me to discuss
cimzia
. I am already on methotrexate injections and sulphasalazine tablets and because of a very bad flare early December I may be "considered" for
cimzia
injections.

Do you inject/take MTX and/or anti TNFs when unwell?
(I'm due MTX inj tonight and
cimzia
inj tomorrow!) EDIT: I actually feel quite silly asking this. I've been on MTX for 4 years, surely I should know this by now! I usually just plod on and inject as usual but wondering if it just hinders illness recovery.

Cracked and bleeding fingers
It came to a head Xmas when my specialist said I was showing allergy factors in my blood, he said my fingers and breathing difficulties were due to
Cimzia
and to stop it immediately. I took a course of steroids, breathing improved and skin healed.

On Cimzia and working in a Primary School?
Along with all the other meds I take, I have just started
Cimzia
, which the nurse explained to me in no uncertain terms, will leave me with very little immune system and make me very susceptible to infections which I will then have difficulty fighting off.
