Hi--thanks for so many responses. I still need to talk to my

pharmacist friend, but all of your comments were very helpful. I

didn't realize there are more steps with using Enbrel (mixing) and I

had not heard about the stinging associated with the Humera shots.

I am very hesitant about Remicade and will probably not go that

route.

my rpimary insurance does not cover injectibles at all, but my

second does at a very reasonable cost. I am very lucky, but am

realizing that I am more stiff and having more pain than before and

do need to try one of these treatments. I also am being treated for

depression, trying different meds for that and trying to get the

boost I need. Today is a tough day for some reason, maybe it is

just hitting me that my RA is getting worse.

Hi ,

Sounds like you are finding lots of information

on medications from this list. Its a good feeling to

have your own options...and opinions, not just

what the doctor says

you will have on his/hers say so.

Oh,the wonderful world of computers!

Sometimes another change of meds is like a holiday.

You feel rested up and

much stronger to face the world.

Thinking of you with

love, Wally
