Guest guest Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 For right now enbrel 50 mg. injection once weekly has been helping me. If I stand on my feet too long then I have trouble. Right now I am trying to work and sometimes that can be difficult if I half to work a double shift. The doctor has put me on Vicodin; 7.5, extra strength. I found Liboderm patches helps a little, I cut it up and have applied it to my back and bottom of my feet. My doctor also prescribes me Voltaren Gel 1% to rub on areas of pain, back. Which this also gives some relief of pain for up to 6 hours. I don't quite need a wheel chair yet, but my doctor says just matter of time when the Enbrel does all it can do. The pills no longer have any effect on me. I have been on Enbrel going on two years. Hopefully if you try any of these I hope it can help. Without the Enbrel I can barely walk, and I hurt all over. Good Luck, Debbie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
