Guest guest Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Well I don't know why, but I really was never expecting it to get to this - yes, major denial going on here... but after being unsuccessful with NSAIDS, plaquenil, sulfasalizine & only semi-successful with prednisone & MTX, my Rheumy sent me home today with pamphlets to look over regarding Enbrel & Humira (to add to my weekly MTX). I figure this was the place to get the " real " scoop - not just what's in the pamphlets. My Dr recommends Enbrel over Humira from a risk (of infection & cancer) standpoint. To say I am beyond terrified is an understatement as I was at the terrified state just trying Plaquenil. She is giving me up to 2 months (when I have my next appointment) to make a decision & go get tested for TB if I decide to forge on... I'd appreciate any info form your own experience - ease of using the pen or needle, side effects, effectiveness, etc, etc, etc, Thank you!!! xoxo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
