I was diagnosed 8 years ago and did a cocktail of drugs for 3 years and with my Rheumatologist continually telling me I was the worst case he’d seen in years I tried to take my own life. I finally got permission to get Enbrel and with the combination of Methotrexate and Cannibas I slowly went into remission, 5 years now and I take very minimal methotrexate, if I had my way it would be none. I had to completely change my lifestyle, but I’m happy I did and I’m thriving and my pain is limited it’s only the fatigue that annoys me most.
