Guest guest Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 I was wondering why you were only on the enbrel for a year and a half? Did you have side effects and have to stop? Have they tried you on the other biologics? I am just curious since I will probably be starting one soon and I though you stay on them longer. Thanks, > > Hello Jane, my name is , I am from Michigan also. I have had RA for about 8 years now. I was on enbrel for a year an d half, which slowed the disease progression alot.

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 Hi Everyone, Because my RA is " mild " and I'm seronegative, my rheumatologist told me I'm not a candidate for biologics. Happily, after a couple weeks on sulfazine my pinkie fingers on both hands are again normal. If only the rest of my joints would follow suit. . . . . Jane In a message dated 4/16/2009 7:58:24 A.M.
