Has Anybody Had Any Experience With Xeljanz?
My Rheumatologist has had me on Xeljanz samples for a month and a half. I've also had a flare-up for weeks. Just wondering if anyone has tried it. Any outcomes?
I take Humira injections off & on since Oct 2015, when I was diagnosed. But only off when I get infections like sinus or UTI. So, when I had a really bad 2 weeks I thought was my fibro, but RA Doc said NO it's a bad flare up. Gave me steroid injection and a prescription for steroids (the package that tapers dosage down in a week). Steroids have always helped me prior to RA. If you can get injections & prescription I highly recommend, IF you are not getting relief from RA meds. I plan to ask for steroids as I feel pain, as often per Dr. will recommend.
it didn't work for me either, also caused my liver nos. to go crazy-not good
I tried it for 4 months but I just wasn't convinced that it was getting the job done for me. I wish this disease had one-size-fits-all meds, but it is very personal. Hope it works for you because taking that pill is a WHOLE lot easier than these injections I'm doing now. Good luck!
I have been on Xeljanz for about 4 months. It has helped some. I hope it continues to get better. Good luck to you - I hope it works!!
Thank you.
Has Arava Or Plaquenil Made Anyone Else's Hair Fall Out? I Stopped Taking Both (my Decision) But Now My Days Are Quite Rough.
My Doctor Wants To Start Me On Enbrel, Humira Or Xeljenz. Has Anyone Had Any Luck With Any Of Them? What Side Effects Have You Experienced?
Have You Taken Xeljanz
