I'm going to have this thursday
Not able to move due to extremely active ra
So have no choice
Ambulance into hosp

When I mentioned to nurses on ward c7 that do these meds for other cases like me/ others who are on biologics etc
They all wince
Avoid eye contact
Say
Rather you than me Jen!

Then leave saying 'it might work of course'

Doesnt leave me with much hope!
Any experience out there?

Met one lady who couldn't tolerate it at all but is on rtx ok she has lupus.

Wishing you all the luck in the world with this drug Jenni.
Who knows, it may be the one that helps you?
Do they do the same with this as they do with mtx......give a much smaller dose for RA than they would give for cancer treatment?

Dose 1 - went in fine!
No allergy
No sickness

I'm so used to tingling Tongue and swelling etc but none of that

Slept lots and feel groggy

But managable so far
