Guest guest Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 Hi Betsy: Sorry you had to stop your meds, but it is best so that you don't further reduce your immune system and let it fight the cold. I don't think anybody can say when the pain will be back, it just kind of depends on your system, the weather (humidity) gets me a lot, and with more activity. When I have been off my Enbrel because of the same type of thing (I usually continue with my Mtx), I have usually started feeling more pain about a month after discontinuing the med. Your pain may come earlier than than, or you could last longer without pain, just depends. Wish I could give you a precise answer.
