enbrel

Avatar n tn ll be getting married this October and am curious to know if any woman out there have gotten pregnant and given birth while on Enbrel.
1544019 tn?1318504526 We just called a pregnancy hotline and she told us that Enbrel should be fine to take up until the last week before I deliver. So that made me feel better. Then, she went on, however, to tell me all the complications that just having Rheumatoid Arthritis can have. Stillbirths, low birth weight, premature births. I'm thinking, "Ah, man! You calm one fear and then raise three new ones in my mind. Thanks!" Actually, I already knew that having RA makes me high risk.
Avatar n tn I'm in the same vote. On enbrel and have developed hpv. Very tiny bumps if even noticeable at all, but its been spreading. Aldara only made my psoriasis and psa flare up. I guess the next thing is to stop enbrel till my hpv clears up? I am 29, male, non smoker. Enbrel is the only med I take.
Avatar n tn Shall I just wait this period and suffer through the pain to avoid taking the Enbrel? Although I really need to get back to normal soon because I have studies and work. 3. Will it get worse, better, or stay as it is while I'm waiting for the symptoms to go away? 4. Will I get such symptoms again in the future, if I'm on or off medications? How bad will it be? Is the antigen I have a factor in having Reiter's chronically?
Avatar m tn one year of Enbrel injections. Although the Enbrel may have lessened the pain and progression. other side effects and basically an unwell feeling. dizziness. sinusitis. Pain in eyes. If this is as good as it gets. there must be something better. anyone else been here and found something better?
Avatar f tn Hi - has anyone who has ever been on Enbrel noticed a rust-colored staining on the hands? I'm not sure if it is directly related to enbrel, but I thought I would ask. My daughter was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis several months ago, and has tried Remicade unsuccessfully. Now, she has had 2 injections of Enbrel, and just today has noticed the staining on her hands. I don't know what to think, so I'd appreciate hearing from any of you.
Avatar n tn In the last year I have developed a head tremor which is getting progressively worse.
Avatar m tn s are interesting to say the least, I had only been on the Enbrel 4 weeks when he said he wanted to take me off of it and try Remicade or Humira. I work in the medical field and researched the heck out of the Enbrel before I started taking it, risk outweighing the benefits etc, it also said it could take up to 3 months to work so I insisted he allow me to give it the full amount of time to work. When you have the time I would love to know the exercises you do.
Avatar f tn I have had two shots of Humira, I constantly have sinus issues, pain pressure, teeth hurt and hedaches. I got them on enbrel and after 9 years it quit working, so tired remicade but after 4 infusions I had such a bad insus probelm I quit it also raised my blood pressrue a lot. I don't seem to be able to handle hard core antibidoics so I can take zpack, and it helps, but I always seem to be back on it alteast every two months.
Avatar m tn These differences were observed regardless of fibrosis stage. Age and HCV-RNA levels on days 7 and 29 were independent predictors of SVR. Short-term treatment was useful in patients <40 years especially if HCV-RNA was undetectable on day 29 and also in patients 40 years provided that HCV-RNA on day 7 was below 1,000 IU/mL in addition to being undetectable on day 29. If neither of these two criteria were met for patients 40 years, 24 weeks of therapy was superior (p<0.0001).
Avatar f tn My husband has ankylosingspondilitis and takes enbrel injections and has considered taking methotrexate before. Best of luck. Could be a real blessing from God :) and a healthy baby!
422104 tn?1209763904 t been around, starting a new job soon and have been really stressed. I have been on the Enbrel 8 weeks now and it has not helped one bit. They want me to try the Remicade now which I did not realize was the infusion med, thought it was the same as the Humira which is injectable like the Enbrel. I have had it with this doctor anyway and need to call someone new next week. Now my fingers are turning white and numb which sounds like Raynaud's to me, yet another auto immune disease!
Avatar f tn Happy that you had a speedy recovery. Good to hear you are back on the enbrel and it is working well again for you. Have a great day, look forward to hearing more great news from all you people on this site.
Avatar n tn AROUND THREE YEARS AGO I WAS HAVING FLARE UPS AND MY DOCTOR ALSO ME ON ENBREL, WORKED VERY GOOD FOR THE RA BUT MY NOW MY THROAT IS ALWAYS SORE AND CONGESTED WITH PHELM. THIS YEAR I'VE SEEM NUMEROUS DOCTORS ENT, GENERAL ALERGIST AND EVEN HAD SINUS SURGERY FOR 30 GRAND, NOTHING FIXED THE THROAT PROBLEMS. I SEEM MY RA DOCTOR THE OTHER DAY AND ADVISED HIM I'M GOING TO GET OFF OF THE ENBREL AND SEE IF MY THROAT CONDITION IMPROVES. HE DID NOT THINK THAT WAS THE PROBLEM.
Avatar f tn I to am going through a similar situtation and have been tested to dealth with no real findings . I am on Plaquenil and Ketoprofen EC 50 mg 4 x a day. It barely takes the edge off. I was on Naprexon slow release but there was always an span of 2 hours where it would wear off before the other dose took affect. I am having problems with my knee swelling. Hope your wife is well. I really know how she feels.. I am trying to be positive but its hard...
Avatar n tn Here's a list of common and uncommon side effects of Enbrel: https://www.rxlist.com/enbrel-side-effects-drug-center.htm If you get a fungal infection, you should call your doctor immediately. Since it is a known risk, your doctor will know how to treat you, and may recommend discontinuing the medication for at least some time.
Avatar m tn ...there were alot of things he could not do anymore. Since being on Enbrel, the inflamation, pain and swelling is gone. He's doing the things he wants to do and its because of Enbrel. I understand why you are nervous about the side effects, but my dads experience has only been positive.
Avatar f tn I was only 42 at the time and the thought of that was mindboggleing! Enbrel was introduced in 1998 and by the time my insurance agreed to pay for it it was Spring 1999 when I took my first injection. I started Enbrel along with an injectible dose of.09 Mtx weekly. For me Enbrel was a light-switch medication and within 2 weeks I was a normal functioning adult again with no pain at all.
Avatar n tn Hi I have been on Enbrel injections for over 4 years and i can't praise the drug enough fantastic results - i have the chance to visit family in Australia for 4 months when i retire in 18 months time the only obstacle is my medication and how would it work with my getting enbrel injections and it is a long flight - is there a solution around this problem
Avatar f tn m convinced that there is a correlation between these things and the Enbrel. Have any other Enbrel users been diagnosed with any of these inflammatory diseases? My gut feeling is that the Enbrel truly is the cause, but it has worked so well on my joints, I'm hesitant to try anything else. My Rheumatologist is going to argue with me about my hypothesis, but I know my body. Can anyone give some insight?
Avatar f tn Ive only had it since 2010 but it was severe at the beginning! Flipped my world upside down. I was tried on Humira and Enbrel. They discontinued the Humira because it was not helping. They discontinued the Enbrel because of side effects. Now I am on Plaquenil. I also get Rituxan infusions.I am on 15 mg of Prednisone but being tapered because I have been on it since 2009 and they want me off it because of the problems it is causing me.
Avatar m tn Can you take enbrel for psorasis and interfern for Hepatitis C, and be safe and will both medication work
Avatar f tn Still trying to get the dosages and combination of drugs right and may be going to Enbrel or Humira soon.
