I Just Started Orencia Injections. Has Anyone Noticed An Improvement Shortly After Starting This Treatment?
When I say shortly I mean within days?
Hello my warrior's
Happy 4th of July everyone be safe and enjoy the fireworks 🎆
I had Orencia infusion once a month it was a God Send. My pain was very minimal and the first 4 years it was great. But then I noticed the Orencia infusion was only lasting one to two weeks I had to wait to get the next infusion in 4 week's. I was in so much pain I had to go to the ER for pain medication. I have never been in so much 😩 pain it took my breath away, my asthma also kicked up I was in real trouble. They uped my Prednisone from 5mg to 80mg then going down every 10mg until I hit 10mg. It helped my inflammation from my joints and lungs 🫁 I have been admitted to the hospital 🏥 more than I can count and put in the ICU 2x never want to go there again. Now I'm on oxygen 2lit when I walk and when I 😴 sleep. The Orencia helped my inflammation in my joints and lungs 🫁 I didn't have that much problem after I moved from California. The Dr.s siad if I didn't leave I would probably die, that scared me and I was taken care of my manfriend that he was very sick and one to help him so stayed onther 4 years by then I was having problems I had to call an ambulance 🚑 to get me into the ER. The Dr.s were very concerned and after 6 years with him he passed from covid he had kidney disease, heart disease and double by pass he was very week. After his passing I came to Albuquerque NM with dry air and when I moved here I had to wait 6 months to get my Orencia and I was so much pain that I cried myself to sleep 😴 😢. I still had some pain medication from California so I nursed it last at least 2 months. When I ran out of the pain medication the would not refill it so oil wanted to get TV back on Orencia waiting was hell. I hope Orencia helped you as did me.
GOD BLESS YOU
Yep that was me in the ER 😆
Hi there. Orencia can kick in after a few weeks (if you are super lucky!) or it can take 3 months or more.
Orencia (abatacept) is a biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD) used to treat moderate to severely active rheumatoid arthritis. It works by inhibiting the activation of T-lymphocyte immune cells, preventing them from attacking the body’s connective tissues.
