I've been on Enbrel for about 5 years and it has been an extremely good medication for both the psoriasis and the psoriatic arthritis.

I am on Endocort (steroid with a LOT less side effects than prednisone), Pentassa, Depression meds, Trammadol (pain), percocet (pain), azathioprine 75mg. Still, I am in pain almost daily. Every once in a while I have a good day. I am really having a hard time, mentally and physically. I have always been very active, early to rise and then go go go go...

Over here in the UK, we generally don't know what the cost of tests and drugs are, as they are covered by the NHS.

I know humira suppresses your immune system but are you supposed to feel like you're coming down with something every injection or will this go away with time?
