I have had Rheumatoid arthritis for twenty three years now. I just had my second son and when he was three months old, I had to be taken to the hospital by ambulance because I could hardly move a muscle. That was when I was diagnose with Rheumatoid arthritis. I have been on so many medications, just trying to find which one would work the best. In 2002, my Rheaumatologist introduced me to the medication Enbrel. At first he tried me on Humira, but after the third shot I had a bad allergic reaction to it. Then I started taking Enbrel and in about two weeks, I had less pain, less stiffness all over, and was totally amazed at how much better I felt. I even had more energy than before and I could do so many many things that I had not been able to do for so so many years. To me this is a miracle drug. I still have up and downs and flare ups, but not as much as I use too. I would recommend Enbrel and have recomended this drug to alot of people.

I thank God everyday for my rheumatologist, it has been over nine years of treatment through his services at the Veterans Hospital in Northport, New York. My diagnose is poly arthritic-rheumatoid, osteo,fibromyalgae, osteoporosis, ankyloses spondylitis, hip replacements, cervical fusions bilateral carpal tunnel, r-thumb fusion, etc. At first I was on cortisone injections and Vicodin-ES. Well none of that was helping, I spent more time in bed stairing at the ceiling than enjoying my life. One med after the other until 2004 when I was give Enbrel. At first I was afraid of self ministering and making sure the mix was properly consistent with no air bubbles, but I overcame my fears and when I did within I would say a two wek span I bagan feeling better. Now I used the Enbrel Sure Click and I have my life back. I don't feel depressed and isolated. Now with the addition of cymbalta, Lyrica and Trazodone, I'm able to work at least part time and get to playing some of my sports.

It all began with...

lolabonita00 says "Gave me back what I was missing." about Enbrel

I was diagnosed with Psoriasis at age 5. I developed Rheumatoid Arthritis in my early 20's and was told without treatment now, I would have 10% use of my hands by age 50. So by the age of 25, over half of my body was covered in Psoriasis and there was very little I could wear without feeling extremely self-conscious. I used Enbrel for several months before becoming pregnant again and I noticed a difference within 2 months. It worked that quickly. My Psoriasis began going away and my joints felt much better. I look forward to using it again after my pregnancy.

I started using Enbrel 1 year after I was diagnosed with RA. I was so grateful to have back some sort of life. However, I do get pissed off when I see comercials in which they claim they have their life back. There are still things I cannot do, and I still have flare ups. ...
