I'm at the hospital tues afternoon to discuss my treatment following the rash that started with my cimzia :(
It's really bad at minute and seems to be spreading down my legs I really look like I have mild measles :P
I just hope if they take me off cimzia they will still be able to give me another biologic :cry:
I hate all this doubt and itching :shock:
Think of me please fingers crossed

    Good luck for today, I shall be thinking of you. I hope they can give another anti TNF, but there may be a wait for the cimzia to clear your system first. Let us know how you get on, please. DD

    Hi all well saw the nice doc today who agreed I'm reacting to the cimzia so put me on another antihistamine, a depo steroid injection :grin: and to come off cimzia. In 6 weeks as long as the rash is gone I can start toccillizumab infusions once a month. As long as my bloods done today were ok.
    So survived the clinic with pretty good results thNk you to those of you who were sat in my pocket x

    Hi Theresa,

    Glad they have taken you off that and hope the rash and the bloods will mean you can start the toccillizumab in 6 weeks. Fingers crossed for you and hope your feeling a bit better knowing things may still come good despite the set back? Cris x
