Will Cimzia be the key to getting my Rheumatoid Arthritis back in remission?

I have been off Methotrexate now for two weeks and will be switching from Enbrel to Cimzia in about two weeks. I am not complaining at the timing because this week is American Craft Beer week and Lloyd has the week planned.

I have not heard much about the Cimzia shot for Rheumatoid Arthritis. So I will be researching a little about it in the next two weeks. Are you on Cimzia or have you ever taken Cimzia for Rheumatoid Arthritis? How well did it work for you? What type of side effects did you have while taking Cimzia?

I will be getting another Vectra DA blood test when I go back to Dr. Forouzesh’s office at the end of May. We will use the results to see if Methotrexate was helping or not. Then have it to compare after the change to Cimzia, so it should be interesting. I am ready to try something new and I hope that it gives me the relief that Enbrel and Arava gave me for a couple years. I really look forward to getting to workout daily again and be able to carry my own bags again.
