Last September I was diagnosed with PA and started on Enbrel.

Although the Enbrel was great for my skin, I was having terrible

injection site reactions, which drove me crazy, and switched to

Humira in January. I don't feel any different on the Humira but have

noticed that my skin is getting bad again. At the end of January I

fainted in my home and broke my ankle. EKGs and blood work checked

out normal and the ER doctor thought the light-headedness might be a

side effect from the Humira. Personally I think it was a freak

accident. Now I'm having shoulder pain and in looking up bursitis

and tendinitis on the internet yesterday, I came across something

that said TNF medications can cause this. Unfortunately I can't find

that same website today. Found something from the Cleveland Clinic

that says 'other diseases or conditions that weaken shoulder muscles

are rheumatoid arthritis, gout, psoriasis, etc. "

Any opinion on this? I'm going to see an orthopedic tomorrow and

have an appt with my rheumatologist next week. Do you think these

can be related? I also have stiffness in my left hip when I stand

and am starting to have pain in my foot when I walk. Sometimes I

think it's my imagination. I don't want to sound like a

hypochondriac! Thanks for listening and sorry for the long message.
