question about health care plans
Things are going down hill (I'm flairing and in much more pain than I have been in the past) and my rheumy wants to put me on a biologic (
cimzia
). With the private insurance plans here in the US, I have a high deductible and have to pay $1200.00 for my prescription to be filled.

Think I need a new ear
I take mtx 10mgs by injection and
Cimzia
also by injection every two weeks.I do have high blood pressure and take medication for this. If this all sounds too good to be true you're right.

Help needed? Could I be suffering from something other than RA?
I have been on
Cimzia
since November 2011, and the first few months were wonderful - just what they told me - I would feel fantstic! I know I have been under alot of stress since then (job, etc) but I am now beginning to feel like I was before I was on Anti-TNF.

Me & my RA - it sucks, but my story so far..........
I was immediately assesed as severe and put on anti-tnf
CIMZIA
injections. For the first few months this seemed to work and gave me some relief from the pain, although my hands and wrists were still pretty useless and the fatigue was awful.

Cimzia
(certolizumab pegol) so would love to hear from anyone who might be on it, what delights I've got to look forward to and if it works? Enjoy the sunshine everyone :-) Ann

1 Year on and still smiling!
I take approx 18 tablets a day and inject
Cimzia
every 2 weeks. My disease activity score is still high and I was informed remission is unlikely if I am lucky I may be able to get down to Medium activity.

What are the connections between RA and pleurisy?
I'm zero negative and on
Cimzia
injections also currently on high dose steroids and waiting for various scans. Help, I don't want to be hospitalized every 4 months with this.

Has anyone else had storage issues with injections in fridge
Have to store three months injections of
cimzia
in fridge.The packets are very large and have to be stored in the the centre ie not touching sides or back.Wondered if I could take them out of the packets and into sealed container of some sort.They seem to take up much of the fridge space and not everyone
