You do need to give Enbrel a chance. It does take a bit to get into your system. I wish you the best with it. I unfortunately failed Enbrel & Humira. But I do know of others that have had very good results with it. Hang in there.

I would not give up yet. It may take awhile for the meds to work. I too have had this happen and waited 3-4 months before I tried another med. I am bit frustrated though as I've tried many different meds.
I did have a food allergy test and found out that I have intollerance/allergy to Gluten,Soy and eggs. I notice that if I eat any of these that I have a flare up. Allergies do create an immune responce so this may be worth looking into. It did not take away all of my issues but has helped a lot not only with RA but digestive issues.
Be well. Hope you find something that works.

Hey Tom,
Hang in there, I have been on Enbrel since 1998, has worked great for me. Like you, Enbrel started working almost immediately. Enbrel is one of the best TNF's out there along with others. Give the Enbrel some time to really start working and get into your system, I know exactly the pain u speak of. At times feelling literally helpless when we flare up like this (very depressing), but dont give up hope and have faith and work closely with ur Rheumy. Good luck you will feel better.
