Hi Sandy (that is my sister's name so it is special to me : )... I started

experiencing autoimmune problems when I was in my late 20's, and had four little

children (6,4,2 1/2 and 14 months.) This was years ago in 1980. I know it is

so very difficult, and I found that getting enough rest was the hardest thing to

manage. Please know there are many of us who have walked the same path and my

heart is with you.

I have been on plaquenil, arava, methotrexate alone, enbrel, remicade, kineret

over the years as well as prednisone off & on, and now am on humira with

methotrexate. Humira has been a huge blessing for me...I have been on it for 2

years (with a couple of gaps because of surgeries or infections) and it has

worked wonderfully. I certainly hopes it helps you as much!

Hugs...
