Rheumy took the annual x-rays of my hands. No change from last year!!! Enbrel and methotrexate combo is working!! Yay!!
And now that I am using the twice a week Enbrel and added doxycycline as an anti-inflammatory, the fatigue issue is resolving as well. Almost feeling human again.
Carefully - dancing - so I don't pull another muscle.

That is the kind of news that makes my day and what we all try to get. Please talk to your RD's office about starting to get help to pay for Enbrel. I don't know how long your husbands insurance is going to last but starting now could help down the road.... been there, done that. Harv

Way to go. Makes me feel good since I'm also on MTX and Enbrel now. I'm going to talk to the RD about twice a week Enbrel when I see her again.

Ooh, Harv! Hadn't thought of that. We have Cobra and it's about 35% paid by the company, plus there is stimulus $ that is supposed to pay for another chunk. Will go look it up today. Will call Rheumy's office next week.
