Guest guest Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 FYI for everyone, On the news 2 nights ago they said Enbrel and Humira were (can't remember if it was black listed or red marked ). It said they are causing deaths from the accumulation of fungus that they cannot get rid of. Cooky Subject: Re: rheumatic synoval lining inflamation Eva, the biologics are Enbrel and Humira. I think there are more but can't remember the names. My hands are the worst part of my RA too. Makes it hard to do anything really. The inflammation got so bad that it caused Carpal Tunnel, had that operation in the spring. _ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
