Rheumatoid arthritis, pain is back with new symptoms
I keep taking
Enbrel
regularly. It had happened I had a break from pain for a short period, but after two/three days it’s back to square one.

Early morning struggles
I'm nearly at week 12 on
Enbrel
. I can feel some improvement although coming off pred its hard to be completely clear about things as my body adjusts. However I have noticed how dreadful I feel first thing, and then after a shower, getting dressed, I tend to feel a bit more human.

Do antiTNFs work without backup?
I'm currently on methotrexate, lefluomide and hydroxy and will be starting on
enbrel
in a few weeks time. My understanding is that I will have to carry on taking at least one of the above DMARDs - don't know for sure but think lefluomide will be stopped once I start
enbrel

Rituximab (MabThera)
At first I took hydroxychloraquin with it but the disease was still active so we tried various other things which made me ill so it was decided that I would have
enbrel
injections which was like a miracle for me.

Have I made the wrong decision?
I'm not aware of any antibiotics that you can't take with
enbrel
(?) I am now thinking of phoning rheumy helpline in the morning to see about stopping mtx and starting
enbrel
as my rheumatologist did say that this option was still open for me should I change my mind in the future.

Any information on Enbrel
Hello, I am about to have the tests to see if I can have
Enbrel
. The Rheumy nurse first told me that there may be a risk of skin cancer and M.S with this drug. When I asked her what that risk can be it didn't appear to be that clear.

Has anyone had adverse breathing difficulties while taking Enbrel.
I stopped after 18 months. It caused severe breathing problems for me. Respiratory consultant had not seen them before.

Enbrel injections- more painful than usual
Hi all, I have been contacted recently by a lady who feels that since the supply issues there were a few months ago with
Enbrel
, her injections seem to be more painful when she administers them. They sting a lot more and the area can become bruised and swollen.

Very slow progress - can anyone share experience coming off pred? Or on enbrel?
I'm down from 10 to 7 mg pred daily and week 6 of
Enbrel
. I'd love any experience of doing either of these. I do have the odd moment of thinking - yes I'm doing x or y which I couldn't do a few weeks ago, but I'm very tired a lot of the time.

ENBREL DELIVERIES FROM HAH
Thanks to those who responsed to my previous question. After 8 calls to them I finally got through and was told the delay in responding was staff shortage and an IT problem. As you know you can ask on the day of your delivery for a two hour time slot, but this is not working and patients are ringing
