Dealing with Insurance companies is exhausting!
Humira,
Orencia
and now Rituxan. I have had ulcers, rashes, Pityriasis, gastric issues and worst of all Migraines. They are without question the worst. Then to top the cake, today I get a letter asking me to pay premiums on disabilty! WHAT!

Cimbia or Orencia? Need help deciding
Has anyone tried Cimzia (or
Orencia
)? We’re trying to get my joint pain and muscle pain under control and reduce the early stages of spondylitis.

Back to the drawing board 😩
Came off
Orencia
as it didn't work and made me feel ill. Rheumy put me back on Cimzia but I came out in hives all over my body after the 1st loading dose. He thinks I probably reacted to it when I took it the first time.

Living in fear of what is to come
Since July 2015 I have tried all the following drugs: Prednisone, Methotrexate, paquenil, Lefludimide, Pregabalin, Humira,
Orencia
, Rituxan, Bisoprolol, to name a few..I was on so many I have forgotten. My body has not responded well to any drug. Also an endless line of opiates.

Re-starting Cimzia today
Came off
Orencia
as it made me feel totally exhausted for 4 days after taking the weekly injection. However, it did sort my feet out and they're not swollen or painful now.

Cold sores and Orencia
Hi, can I ask if anyone has suffered with cold sores when taking
Orencia
(Abatacept)? I got 5 after taking my 2nd weekly injection, 2 up my nose (ouch) and 3 around my mouth. I've not taken
Orencia
for 3 weeks now, waiting for sores to clear up.

Rituxan
The last one,
Orencia
, gave me Pityriasis Lynchnoids. I refused to start Actemra, because of Diverticulosis and hypertension. The nurse tried to have me schedule it but I refused. My Rheumy then sent me to an Internist who refused to approve it without repeating the scope.

Could be Lupus or DILE - newly diagnosed and feeling devastated.
Like I will just stay on
Orencia
for the RA and plaquenil until something bad turns up in my blood work. i have my normal ra pains and the rash. I do get bad migraines which have started to last days at a time around my period for the past year.

First Biologic
My Rheumatologist has Rx
Orencia
infusions which will probably start next week. I'm to continue on Arava as well. Sorry if I'm writing a book here. I guess bottom line I would like to know if anyone has been on
Orencia
(Abatacept) and your experiences with it.

Ketamine and orencia
Hi, I'm about to have my first ketamine infusion for multiple pain issues and also am on
orencia
infusions for my RA, I am wondering if anyone has had both these infusions and if there were any problems with it, because there is no data on whether these two can be given together.

Biologics ? When is enough, enough?
I developed Pityriasis Linchnoids on
Orencia
. I have , in the past year, gone threw four DMARD's and two Biologics. The next drug I am considering is Actemra. My concern is two fold. One, I have mild diverticulitis and cardiac issues. I have discontinued all pain meds as well.

New to Biologics
With my new doctor she and I agreed to try
Orencia
infusions but my health insurance wouldn't cover it without trying Embrel first. So here we are trying Embrel.

To all Warriors with experience ?
I can no longer take
Orencia
or Humira. Genetically Remicaid and Rotoxemab also show up as problem drugs. This leaves Actemra...If anyone is currently on Actemra infusions, let me know how things are going.

RA HEALING JOURNEY
Was on enbrel humira and
orencia
. Got severely ill with strep and shingles and had to decide I was no longer going to take the biologic's. I have since taken a natural path with Plexus. www.midstateplexus.com tried the TrioPak and it has been a GODSEND!!! My pain is minimal.

Orencia infusions,
I have now received three loading doses of Abatacept (
Orencia
). This is a T cell inhibitor. I also seem to have developed a restricted artery in lower part of my heart. Consequently, the cardiologist added a drug to lower cholesterol and a drug which lowers blood pressure.

Since then I have been on Prednisone, Medrol, Remicade, and now will be on
Orencia
in a few weeks. My rheumatologist believes I am a rheumatoid arthritis patient with an overlap of Lupus. Anyone else with these two diseases please message me with any thoughts. Thank you all so much!
