Hi -- Yes, seveal people on this list are using Enbrel, including myself. I have been using it since late February / early March of this year and have to say that I like it. It did not affect me as quickly or as profoundly as it has some of my RA friends, but I think it has helped a good deal. I was convinced of that some months back when I had to go off it for a while -- the pain that resulted convinced me that the Enbrel worked. I also take methotrexate and have no problem taking the two together. Enbrel must be injected, but I have to say that injecting oneself is not as scary as it sounds -- it is actually rather easy. Good luck! ===== , NJ Highlands raharris@... __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 : I just started Enbrel a couple of weeks ago - never having had to stick myself before, I must admit that I was poised above my leg for quite awhile before I could actually put it in!! It is very counter-intuitive, but now it's a piece of cake. I notice that sometimes I bruise, sometimes I don't. As far as the effectiveness of Enbrel, sometimes I feel great, other times like this morning, it's not so great. But I just started and maybe things will even out. Courage!! gloria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
