    Hi Tinky,Sorry you have had trouble with your other meds I have been on humira for 15 months now and once it kicked in it has changed my life ,the only thing that stops me doing some things is the fact that my hands are a little deformed and weak otherwise a success ( touch wood) the injection is in pen form which is really easy to use ,I also take hydroxy tablets daily.Please let us know how you get on.

    Hi Mig,

    I'm glad you are getting relief from Humira. It is a pain to be having to start all over again. I'm slowly going down hill as I have to wait for the go ahead and delivery, so that could be weeks away.. :o
    I'm really hoping something works for summer as I want to tinkle about in my
    garden, which I didn't do last year and I miss doing stuff so much.

    I will let you all know how things go. I forgot to say that I bruised as well and all the other injection site rashes started showing up each time I did an
    injection..

    Hm, not brilliant,is it? Let's hope humira is the one for you. All this trial and error must be very frustrating - and painful.
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

    Hi everyone.. :D

    Just a little update..
    I have been to see consultant and he has taken me off Enbrel and now awaiting to go on Humira.
    The good news about the enbrel was it had started to bring down the inflammation.....so I'm hoping Humira will do the same.
    I also had to get some Gabapentin because I'm having tingly, hot weird,
    heavy feeling in my hands and feet.. :(
