Re: For Bram...

I have heard good things about Kineret. I truly hope it works for you! It is my

RA #1 drug of choice for Stills but because I had such a big relapse I don't

think he felt it would be a good idea to try & continue it. He even had me doing

double doses for a week to see if that would kick start things but I just kept

going downhill. I can't say the Enbrel has had a big effect yet either but this

week is only a month & I've heard it can take up to 6-weeks. After my Enbrel &

MTX injections on Wed. I am usually down on Thurs & Friday but I have a feeling

that is more the MTX side effects.

I hope you can continue your Karate! I was working out 3 x aweek before I got

sick this time & was feeling pretty good now it's all I can do to walk my dogs 8

blocks but I'm being optimistic & really hope I can start going again maybe it

won' be at the same level but anything is better than nothing! Your right what

is fair?? I'm sure there are things much worse than stills but some days it sure

doesn't seem possible!

Take Care,

Chris
