Guest guest Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 Hi Sherry, My old Rheumy put me on Actemra and I tried it twice. First time broke out in hives all over second time had swelling of my legs, ankles and feet. New Rheumy tried Actrmra a third time with a lot of premeds and it took away my fevers and flare. Sadly after a week I started with SEVERE joint pain that would keep me awake at night in tears. It did not go away until I started Kineret. Even then there were a few days I did not take Kineret and the Actemra pain returned. My Rheumy said that he attended a conference and it was reported that although it helped with chief complaint, it also caused excruciating pain. If you try it, I really hope it works for you.

The docs put me on Arcalyst, but that didn't work for a long period either. > > > > > TODAY(Beta) • Powered by Yahoo! > Radcliffe's weird tongue trick > The " Harry Potter " star shows off an odd move that not many people can do. > Privacy Policy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
