Unfortunately I think I'd go along with your diagnosis, Del. These meds do seem to run out of steam sometimes though I have been in a similar situation, with other stuff, and upping the dose, with a steroid jab to tide me over, helped. Having said that, I always find that my RA takes advantage of anything that raises my temp to kick its heels a bit and enjoy a few days freedom. With luck, it might just be that. At least you have appointments relatively soon. I hope they go well.
If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

    Oh deal, I am so sorry. All things come to an end, the good as well as the bad: arthritis is a stubborn foe and will not be cowed. I think you are thinking along the right lines but hopefully something else will pop up on the meds front for you. DD

    Hello Dell
    I had a simula problem when i was on Enbrel it was one of the few meds that worked well with me. I got a chest infection and within 3 or 4 days of missing the injection the pain got quite bad. They took me off it because i kept getting chest infections. I'm on Rituximab now and its good.
    Take care hope your feeling better soon
