Wow - another person that has the same problem -- do you ever talk to your

doctor about going off of Kineret?

My doc says no to me. Plaquenil gave me virtigo and I tried Arava once and

got sick to my stomach but we may try it again without mixing it with MTX

and other drugs. It's so frustrating to have a temp every day. 97 in the

morning and 100 to 101 at night (don't get me wrong - way better than 104)

I'm so sorry that you have to deal with this too.

Do you work? We have thought about leaving Seattle, at least the winters,

but haven't made that decision yet.

I am on Kineret - have been for a little more than 2 1/2 years and I

still have daily fevers. Not as high and not as long, but they are

still there every afternoon like clockwork. At this point, this is my

main symptom as the Kineret, Arava, and Plaquenil are doing a good job

for me.
