enbrel and injection site reactions

[Guest guest]

I've been taking enbrel now for 5 weeks and just had my first site

reaction this past week. Within 24 hours of the injection I noticed my

stomach started to itch like crazy. It was red and raised. I called

the nurse line and she took a report (required by FDA). I just wanted

to know if anyone has had to call their MD's about this? Does it

usually go away on its own or should I call the rheumy? I don't wanna'

make a huge deal about it since it is one of the more common and less

serious side effects. Let me know what you all have done in this

situation.

Thanks,
