Hi Rose.
Read one of your posts to a new member and you said you were waiting for counselling for anti-TNF drugs, after failed DMARDS, what is the counselling for ?. I am due to see rheumy nurse on 22nd to talk about Anti- TNF drugs because I've tried MXT and Sulfasalazine and they didnt agree with my body so it was me who rang and asked about them after I was told on the forum to ask for them, but the rheumy nurse hasn't really told me much yet....

Hello Eileen.

Firstly sorry I missed this post.

Well saw RA nurse yesterday and had counselling session and DAS score was 6.5 . She said
my joints did appear too swollen but my joints were painful (i'm thinking oh no is she dis-
beleiving me ). She has sent me away with leaflets about 2 drugs humira and cimzia(which
I understand is relatively new . So now I am now unsure which to go for.

I have started another post Eileen under drugs to see if anything else can be added ?
