    HI all

    My doc says hes not sure that the cimzia is right for me as Iam now getting 2 infections a month near enough. He says it is a difficult one as it has helped my joints a bit which is the first one out of 4 so he said to battle on til my rheumy appointment and discuss it there and to have a blood test next week to see whether my white cells have started dropping as he said the last few results suggest they are lowering little by little. In the meantime I am backl on the strong antibiotics that make me feel drowsy and ill. I have spent all morning sleeping ( as much as I can while the dog is barking :roll: ). I have to take them for 3 days but if no better then 6. He is hoping we have caught it early enough to only need 3 so I only miss my MTX today and not the cimzia as well on monday.
    The rheumy may drop my MTX dose down to see if that helps then take it from there if still no better I may have to come off of the cimzia and manage on MTX as I dont think Im eligible for the next drug yet.
    My kids are peed off as I was supposed to collect them from school today to go sort their bank accounts with them (they need me there for these ones) and I have cancelled on them. I know they will understand but I feel such a let down :cry: . My youngest is 15 and Im losing precious time with them while they do still need my help with things. I keep thinking just go but I feel so weak and I would have to drive. Maybe tomorrow?? :cry::cry:
