Presently on Cimzia but seem to have developed food allergies - which I gather is one of the side effects. Anyone else experienced this?

Anti TNFers - do you notice if you miss/delay a dose?
I inject
cimzia
fortnightly. I keep picking up infections, so have had to delay doses and I really notice if I've been delayed for more than a week or so because my RA symptoms start raging. Anyone else experience this?

Does changing from MTX tablets to injection always help reduce the nausea & diarrhoea side effects
I have been on
Cimzia
& MTX tablets (20mg) for the past 3years but because of the GI side effects was changed to MTX injection (20mg) 8 weeks ago. Prior to this I had difficulty eating well & had lost quite a bit of weight & was getting weaker.

Battling it out for a bit long on cimzia, any ideas to help the side effects?
I wrote a few days ago about my ambivalence about staying on
cimzia
. After a long chat with my rheum, we've agreed I will stay on a bit longer and review in another couple of months. She's reduced my injected MTX (from 20mg to 15mg) which she hopes will ease some symptoms.

Will the side effects wear off? It's been 11 weeks.
I've been on
cimzia
(fortnightly anti TNF injections) for 11 weeks. I get terrible headaches that require sleep in a dark room for one week after the injections.

Advice please: diagnosed nearly 3 years' ago for Psoriatic RA and allergic to every drug incl steroids! Is there anything left for me to try
Cimzia
(biologic) was the worst and took a year to get over side effects; can only tolerate Naproxen (not even stronger varieties of anti-inflammatories) and feel my Consultant has given up on me. Also tried Methotrexate, Hydroxychloroquine, you name it... GP tries to help with pain control.

SWITCH - research study for those on 1st anti-TNF and methotrexate
Remicade, Enbrel, Humira,
Cimzia
& Simponi) together with methotrexate then you may be suitable to take part. The study will compare three different treatment options that are available to patients who are not responding to their current treatment.

At last......................
This was due to me having to
Cimzia
injections and give up part of my role as main first aider. It was a stressful and very painful time - and I decided to take a reduction in my hours, and then concentrate on finding another job. Well.........
