Hi @yelenaor
One year without pain, this is so great! Congrats! And you don't any side effects? I'm still on Enbrel injections but my doctor wanted to maybe try Humira before all the Covid thing. We will see... How do you do btw? Are you self-isolated? I'm staying at home with my wife but I miss going out and seeing our friends. Its so frustrating to feeling good right now and not being able to do anything!

I was on it for a year and it didnothing for me. Between that and possible side effects, if quit taking it.
HOWEVER I didn't start till age 70 and too much damage had been done. Went to 2 different rheumatologits and neither of them helped me.
So I am happy some people founf relief from it.I don't want to discourage anyone for trying it.

I am pretty scared due to the array of side effects. What are your thoughts?
