Re: RAE........rash at injection site..

[Guest guest]

Rae,

I have been getting a red rash at my injection site since I have been on

Enbrel. Some are worst than others and I started last April 2004. My RA

doctor

told me not to be alarmed.

Hi all, I get the big ones too since restarting Enbrel after 12

weeks off due to infections. I find if I put a steriod creme over

the area of injection as soon as the " bumb " starts, it doesn't itch

and goes down within a day. Hope this helps. My rheumy said not to

worry.

hugs,
