Reactive Arthritis and TNF Inhibitors

[Guest guest]

Hello - I am 43 - diagnosed with reactive arthritis. Pain in eyes, urethra and

joints from toes to fingers. Was given diclofenac sp? and it made me jaundice. I

am currently on doxycycline, naproxen and prednizone. The stiffness has

subsided a bit but the pain is fine one day and then tough for 4 or 5. The

doctor now believes I am headed for a TNF Inhibitor. The question, who has

experience with these? Do you believe they will work? How long should I expect

to be on them? I know they are expensive, how expensive?

I am negative for genetic markers and the obvious food allergies. And I have

tested negative for std's. Any help would be great. thank you.
