Guest guest Posted December 30, 2003 Report Share Posted December 30, 2003 Enbrel was a lifesaver for me. I have been on it since 2000 and I can live my life everyday. Enbrel has a website you should check out (enbrel.com) and don't forget to join their enliven group. The enliven group will send you all sorts of great stuff (needle container, a sak to carry your medicine on trips). I have had no side effects what so ever. Good luck. Alison [ ] New Guy P.A. Hi, I thought I would check out the user groups for information on Enbrel for treating P.A. and came across this group. I start taking Enbrel tomorrow and, frankly, I am scared to death! I tried MTX and it put me in the hospital the next day...adverse reaction they said. Does anyone know of any side affects related to Enbrel use? Should I be afraid to take it? I know that I will do anything at this point to feel like my old self again, but being a father at 27 yrs. old and all, I don't want to risk loosing that. I guess if anyone here would be kind enough to inform me of this drug and its reactions, I would greatly appreciate it. If I can do anything or inform you guys of anything I'll do so as well.
