Enbrel

Barnstable, MA

I have been prescribed Enbrel and would like to hear from people that are taking it or have taken; your pros and cons. I’ve read the whole sheet on the med and it terrified me.

I have been on Enbrel and it has been a life saver for me.I started using it about 20yrs ago and had to stop it for 3 weeks for surgery and my husband had to lift me out of bed and help me to the bathroom. It was the worst pain I have ever had. If you read the ingredients on an aspirin bottle it will scare you to death.I have never had any side effects from Enbrel

My personal opinion is ... I'd trust Enbrel more than Methotrexate, NO question! I had NO side effects when on Enbrel, it worked wonders for me!! I wish you the very best my friend ... keep us pst'd!!! Enjoy your night...🌛

Thank you so much for your encouraging words. I have been nervous about starting it. I read about all the side effects, etc., and have been fighting with the doctor, but the time has come to bite the bullet, so to speak, as the methotrexate is now causing me issues.

Happy Holidays! Continues good health to you and yours.
