ABOUT ME:
I have had RA for 12 years. I had a great five year period of remission while on Enbrel until it just stopped working. I have been on remicade every four weeks for about a year. Unlike bi-weekly injections of Enbrel which kept the beast at bay, the remicade cuts out 3 to 5 days before the next infusion. It's like hitting a wall. Otherwise I'm just swell.
