Guest guest Posted January 15, 2004 Report Share Posted January 15, 2004 Hi all! I hear alot about Enbrel and Humira, but not much about Remicade. Has anyone had any luck with Remicade? I have been on it one year next month, and while it has slowed down some of the damage from RA (per x-rays) I still don't get mauch relief over the pain and fatique. I have a good day here or there, but in general, I feel the same as before I started the infusions. I have had several serious infections (staph, viral and URI) that lasted for months, usually starting as one thing and becoming something else-like from viral to upper respiratory crud. I was on MTX injections for several years and didn't get any relief from that at all-just alot of nausea and extreme fatigue. I have such a hard time with the RA setting off the fibromyalgia and vice versa. Is Remicade used frequently or has everyone given up on it? I have done my best to stick with any drug I have tried for at least a year or longer to be sure it isn't going to work before changing it. Any comments?
