Hi Natalie

I really hope this dose of cimzia helps you with no more nasties over the next couple of weeks. The injections are really big so understand the sore injection sites. I have been on cimzia since June, had horrible side effects to start with but it did improve. Unfortunately cimzia is not holding my R.A so just added methotrexate to the mix. More injections!!! Fingers crossed you start to improve soon.

By the way, Still loving your poem, so beautiful....

Take care and keep posting your cimzia progress
Love
Rebecca

Well I thought all was too good to be true, into week 2 of my 2nd loading dose and mouth ulcers are back, bowels are playing havoc with me and to top it off another awful cold is taking hold. So fed up right now, its not even as if my joints are getting any relief................. can I scream now lol!! I know my nurses keep telling me I will be well again and be able to do all the things I used to but honestly I can't see this happening any time soon.

I finally had to give in to using a stick until something does kick in just to give myself a chance to keep going cause all I really want to do right now is give up. Sorry to be so down just feel like my body is packing in Sad xxxxxxx

Poor you! This loisy weather doesn't help either does it? Feel free to scream. I know they have our best interests but sometimes you wish the rheumy teams could know what's it like :)
