Guest guest Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 First I want to say thanks to all in this group. I've had my condition (spondylitis) for 5 years now, but I've learned more in the couple weeks here than the past 5 years. I'm not sure why I never researched it more before. I think I was scared to know and when they found meds that worked (Enbrel) I just went on with life. But now the Enbrel no longer works, and quite frankly I'm scared of the alternative, but agreed to try Humira. My question is has anyone ever been on Enbrel, had it quit working, tried Humira and it worked for them. I ask because I know they are " sister " drugs and if one doesn't work, isn't it possible the other won't either. Just curious. The dr. thinks my body has created antibodies against the meds. My heart goes out to all of you suffering from these diseases. I used to think mine was severe til I came here and read your heartbreaking stories. So far I'm still able to do most things, and my pain is managed well. I pray you all find what works best for you so you can enjoy your life again. I will NEVER again take for granted the daily things that I'm able to do. HUGS to you all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
