Youst an update. Still on cimzia, prednisolon, metex, pain meds and so...
Don`t feel like the cimzia is having any effect. Maybe a littel but not mutch... Have been on cimzia four about 3 months now..
When`t to the speciallist with my toa nail that are falling of and are waiting back on the results...They didn`t now what it was when I came there.. But they helped me whit the some others problems/side effects...Going to operate on my toa nail in november because when they came back they came in the wrong direction..

Olso got an new infection after the last one I had when I`m posted here but got some more antibiotic and now it is gone...

Going to see my reuma doctor in November and hopefully I can stop Cimzia because I don`t feel like that`s helping at all... Maybe I call them tomorrow, so tired of this...

Sorry that I have been away four a long time but has started on buisness school in me sparetime when I`m not at work so don`t have mutch sparetime longer...

Hopefully it get better in time.. Really struggling and having a hard time hanging in there..

    Hi Kathe, I'm sorry you're having such a bad time.
    It's really frustrating when the meds don't work, isn't it?
    I hope your rheumy appointment goes well, and your next lot of meds gives you some relief.
    It sounds as though you're really busy at the moment, I wish you luck with everything.
    All the best,
    Numpty

    Hi Kathe, nice to hear from you again but sad that you are suffering so much.
    I just wanted to say hello. You have so much going on, it doesn't seem fair.
    Thinking of you and hoping you have a successful rheumy appointment and everything else gets sorted out very soon. Take care Joy.

    Sounds like you need a fairly urgent appointment Kathe, when we start crawling about its time to see the doctor again, especially if we have trouble managing the stairs. I hope that your pain is under control and you feel better soon.
    Take very good care, Joy

    Oh Kathe

    I am so sorry the cimzia hasn't been the answer for you :(

    I really wouldn't wait until November either it is too far off if you are suffering so much.

    Please do take care and let us know how you get on. (((())))

    Love Toni xxx
