Metallic taste and more after Orencia infusion

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

I have been getting Orencia infusions for over 2 years. I have only missed one

infusion, June '09, because I was out having knee surgery. I've had two

infusions since the surgery, and weird results since then.

About 10 minutes into the infusion, I am developing an intense taste of metal in

my mouth, which doesn't subside for days. Additionally, I don't feel like I've

gotten much relief out of the last two infusions.

Has anyone else had this kind of thing happen? I'm grateful that these are

pretty minor complications compared to some of the ones the rest of you have.

Thanks for listening!
