Every part of my life changed. I hope they found it early and you have a good dr.

I’m definitely doing this. I did ask him about it last Friday but he said maybe lower the dose. I’d love to come off totally. Thanks for your reply.

Yes every month. Just realize that it take about 6 months for it to kick in. Work with your rheumy about weaning off the methotrexate after the orencia has kicked in.

I would love to come off methotrexate. It’s causing nodules on my elbows in fingers. Do you get infusions of the Orencia monthly?

It's been great. I've been on it for almost a year. I feel great. Have even stopped taking methotrexate. Just do the Orencia now.
