First 2 pricks of cimzia done......
Well i have been to hospital and had my first two doses of
cimzia
given. I even done it myself and it was so easy to do. Just like injecting mtx. Next one in two weeks time, hopefully i will start to feel better. Here's hoping. Hope you are all well.;xxxxx

Cimzia injections
Is anyone else on these injections. I had my 1st ones 2 weeks ago, and due another 2 injections on Tues. Just wondering if anyone has had these and have they felt any relief from them. I was nervous at doing them myself, but it was nothing, and know on Tues I will be more confident at doing them.

Thanks & a question about periods, ( sorry ladies, and men!). More correctly , lack of them!
Dear all, many thanks for all postings about
cimzia
. I feel more informed and buoyed by others good news stories. Does anyone know , have experience of missed periods. I've not had 1 in 8 months. Not that I'm moaning, I'm definitely not pregnant!!

Rituximab experience
Over the last couple of years I've had bad reactions to methotrexate and sulfasalazine, no response to
Cimzia
or Humira and consequently RA has been progressing unchecked. The unit is only a year old, the chairs were very comfy and the staff were great so it was a good start.

Disagree with RA diagnosis - where do I go from here?
She was off sick for a few months and I recently saw her colleague who suggested anti-TNF treatment (
cimzia
) but also wrote in her letter that she feels my diagnosis is likely to be RA but she was not certain.

Certolizumab Pegol (Cimzia)
I'm having my 2nd DAS assessment in 4 weeks but it's looking very likely that I will come off leflunomide but remain on injected MXT and start this anti-TNF drug (my first). I know everyone is different but I would be interested to hear some experiences about it; side effects, how long it took to work

The count down begins
Well Friday I received the long awaited call that I am able to start
cimzia
next week. I've been in a flair for a few weeks now, been unable to face work for over a week and been a poor excuse of a mum to my daughter. I am kinda scared and excited.

Assessment tomorrow to move onto anti-TNF drug
However, I have my assessment tomorrow with my rheumy and hopefully...with everything crossed, they will finally agree to start me on
Cimzia
. I've had such a battle to get to this stage and really hope I get some good news after tomorrow.

cimzia
The main reason for writing is that I have recently started
cimzia
,the drug you have to inject yourself,and am still taking leflunomide with it.

We now know what it is
The drug is
cimzia
so if any one knows anything about it comments would be welcome. I know they will be injections and i know how much they cost which is a lot of money,i just hope they work as i have forgotten what it is like to have a pain free day.

2nd Anti-tnf Assessment
Next the nurse has to present my case to 2 consultants who decide which therapy to go for (
Cimzia
, Humira or Enbrel) then it is passed to the head pharmacist before finally heading to the PCT for a yay or nay.
