Hi all.....
I got a steroid injection in to the muscle (kenalog) yesterday. I was told that it would tide me over until I start on Enbrel at the end of the month. Anyway .... Does anyone know how many days it takes until it gives you as much effect as it is going to. I thought that I'd heard about 48 hrs . I was told it could last 3 months. Last time I got the jag it didnt have any real effect. This time I feel slightly better. Thanks peeps

Sorry, can't help, mormodook, as it's some time since I had one. I know reactions are varied and I'm just one of the lucky ones that they've always helped. How's things today?If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.
