New to site, just started on Yuflyma
Thought it was about time I joined the Community. Diagnosed in 2011 with RA. Been on Methotrexate for 12 years, with various supplementary tablets. Past two years, most joints in my hands and feet are affected (swollen, deformed). Was recently approved to start on Yuflyma. Having only had two doses, no RA flares to report and the difference in my mobility, inflammation and pain levels is incredible. Anyone else just embarking on this biosimilar?

I'm on a different manufacturer of adalimumab - I'm on Amgevita. I was started on it in late July 2021. Like you I noticed a difference about a week after my 2nd injection though mine was slight. However by 2 months I was able to hand back the elbow crutches I'd needed to walk with before I was put on the treatment. I'm able to walk my dog 50-60kms a week now - though with a limp as my psoriatic arthritis had caused too much damage to my knee in the year before I was put on adalimumab.
I hope your progress continues.
