I have just had my first delivery of Cimzia but can't take it until a few weeks on from my L THR scheduled for this coming Monday.

I chose the Cimzia from the anti TNFs offered as the biologics nurse said that it was effective against the psoriasis as well as the RA and that the manufacturers make the claim that if it's going to work it will do so within 3 months :)

Would love to hear from anyone who takes it.

love Cherry xx

    Hi Cherry

    I have no personal experience of thsi one so I googled it - looks like it might do the job for you.

    I wish you luck and hope you'll let us know how you get on with it.

    Love

    Thank you for your good wishes Toni and DD :D

    As I understand it, Cimzia is the "newest" anti tnf so I hope it does the trick.

    Love Cherry xx

    What are you expecting/hoping it to do? I'm on my third lot of anti-TNF treatment and am feeling rather disillusioned with it all. DD
