Has Anyone Had Success With Remicade Alone?
I was supposed to start Humira and have had an initial dose (Dr provided a sample). It began making a huge difference almost immediately. Now my insurance company has decided I have to first take Remicade infusions for 6 months before they will consider approving Humira. I cannot take methotrexate (liver panel was BAD) and I'm not taking anything else but Prednisone. I'm discontinuing Prednisone asap. Has anyone had success with Remicade alone? How about side effects?
I had side effects with both. Hope you find relief soon. Itβs a journey trying to find what works. π€
@A myRAteam Member I am aware of the patient assistance programs for the uninsured, but I do not want to tap into the fund that is set aside for those without insurance. I have insurance. It would be unfair and selfish of me to accept help that may result in others less fortunate not receiving the assistance they need because i helped myself to funds that I am really not entitled to.
I'm so sorry about your insurance. They can be about as much pain as RA. I have never taken Remicade but I may have to soon as the doctors are talking infusion therapy. I have taken Humira and I loved it. But I started having bad liver reports. Hope they can find their way to helping you. God bless
My daughter has ulcerative colitis and Remecade put her in remission, Ive not tried it for my RA, but every person responds differently to meds, I sure hope you find yours
@A myRAteam Member that's the infuriating part. My first dose of Humira was amazing. I started feeling a difference within an hour of taking it and had no side effects at all.
Has Anyone One Had Success With Rituxan? It Is My Last Hope.
