You’re welcome. Currently I’m on methotrexate and Enbrel.

I have been on Orencia for several years and it has kept RA under control. In the last few years, i am 76, i seem to have developed health issues that RA predisposes me to. For example, i had an infected salivary gland three times over 2-3 years - very painful but same day surgery to remove the offending gland once the infection was gone. I come up with minor infections easily after a cut or something. Following a car accident I was diagnosed with Atrial Fibrillation. Not CAUSED by RA but cardiac issues are linked sometimes to autoimmune disease. My excellent RA specialist is very pleased with my results eith Orencia too.
