Hi all hope you are well and not having any nasty flares. As the title says I just did my 1st injection for cimzia. I was so scared and I wanted to do both them but could only do the 2nd which I was disappointed about. I feel a little relieved that its over and not got to do it again for 2 weeks.

My question is side effects. Since doing it I have got a headache and its getting worse like a migraine on side of head and sickness feeling do others get this?

    I don't take enbrel, dee2010, but bumping this up so's someone who does may see it. (Well done on that first injection though.)

    Dear Davina

    So sorry you are feeling so rough. and very very proud of you for doing the jab...no way could l do that!!!

    I am also posting for Cris (skezier) whose eyes eyes are iffy atm :( .

    Neither of us has had cimzia, but both of us wanted to offer our support to you...we wonder whether you could run this by the rheumy nurse or GP??? It is only 4pm :?

    Love

    Toni and Cris xxxx
