Sight reaction 3 weeks late??!!!:(

June 15, 2008

I am on Enbrel as many now know. I woke up yesterday with a few, I'm going to

say 4 real red bumps on my leg. I wondered if a bug bit me so just kinda ignored

it. As the day went on it formed together one huge red thick lumpy hot raised

thing. I was like what the heck!!! It was hot the the touch. I then realized it

was right were last Sundays shot sight was but asked myself umm that was a week

ago!!??

My hubby scared me and said maybe I was coming down with phyriasis. I then

looked over at my other leg and checked out the old 3 week sight and lowand

behold it was doing the same thing! I was all so happy I had no reaction sight

thing and it took weeks later to come to a head?? Thats so odd. I was on the web

and I read a few other ladies had this same thing happen and their RD told them

to take cortisone cream and beneyrel. I just cant get over how it was such a

delayed reaction in my body. I took my 3rd shot today. I made sure to ice it and

put cortisone cream on it after. Today during my injection I almost blacked out

and I don't know why. I find that my left leg is worse with the pain then the

right with the injections. I cried like a baby after my shot cause I really was

getting ready to black out. I hate that feeling!!! I haven't done that in 7 or 8

years to date.

I always feel very weak and tired for 24 hours after my shot and the head aches

today were very low compared to last week will see what happens tomorrow.

I have a funny story I will email in a bit after dinner. Thought I might make

you smile dear friends.

Sincerely,

PS Yes I will tell and show my rummy my reactions dont worry. LOL
