Will most likely start thr orencia, info and web site posted w/msg

[Guest guest]

hi,

haven't posted in a few days. i am contmplating the orencia only

concern is them finding a vein consistently. seems to be huge

problem lately. however i don't think a pic line or any other long

term line is something I would be interested in, so will see how it

goes.

i don't think promoters will say all about their product and since

some of us, me included, are more sensitive to meds (hives, facial

rash, body rashes, blurred vision, increased joint pain, interaction

with current meds, etc.) than others I have left a web page listing

side effects as well as benefits for those having a hard time finding

the right therapy as I am. There is a lot of info there and somehow

I always end up there when researching RA.

Will keep you posted on orencia results. Hang in there. Peace and

healing. Ebony

SIDE EFFECTS: The most common side effects include headache, upper

respiratory tract infections and nausea. Because abatacept depresses

the immune system it reduces the body's ability to fight infection.

Therefore existing infections may worsen or new ones may develop.

Patients may also experience infusion related reactions such as

dizziness, headache, hypotension or hypertension, nausea, wheezing,

rash, nausea and shortness of breath. The most serious side effects

are infections and cancer.

Ebony, the best of luck to you with Orencia, should you be able to try it.

Sites like MedicineNet get their information on a particular drug from the

clinical trials that the manufacturer conducts. Information about adverse

effects discovered during the trials is included in the prescribing

information at the manufacturer's site.

thanks , hopefully I will be able to try the orencia with good

results.

I understand that medicinenet don't do their own study of the drug

however they gave the best description of the drug in my opinion,

straight to the point so felt it would be easy for anyone who was

interested to get more of an objective and complete picture -- the

good and bad. thanks for posting the information.

in peace,

Ebony
