Hi Kimbley, I’ve been taking a weekly enbrel injection for about two years. I started feeling less pain and stiffness after the second injection. No side effects. Hope it works well for you 🤗

Thank you a little nervous but planning to start the injection on Monday
Anything is better than living with this pain everyday
At one point it would come in flares but now there’s no relief at all here lately so hopefully this will work for me as it did you 😐
