When I went on Enbrel, my nodules gradually diosappeared.  I had to go off

Enbrel after around eight years, and have been on Arava for three years, but the

nodules have not returned.

Barbara - Thank you for your kind words as always. You always have a way of

wording things in such a way to make people feel so much better. Well I went to

my regular doctor today for a lump that suddenly appeared on top of my foot, and

low and behold it is a rheumatoid nodule! She said it was a strange place for my

1st nodule to appear, but that is just me!!! I hope you have great relief when

you have your removed next week Barbara!

Thank you for being you!

After I went on Enbrel, the nodules on my elbows disappeared.

Just curious, why did you have to go off Enbrel?

hopeful to know that medication is able to reverse some of the ill effects that

RA puts on us. Thanks for telling me that!
