And I know what you mean about feeling elderly, I told my husband on a particularly bad day that I felt like I was 90 years old! I do hope that the enbrel works for you I just want to say that I'm only 42 and when my doc put me on Celebrex it made me have mini strokes, decreased sensation and numbness on my left side, and dizzy spells. Once I stopped taking it and it got out of my system, all those symptoms went away. So I just want you all to be very careful, please. I know that it works great for some people, and I'm happy for you, but just don't believe that those side effects are only for the elderly.
