Enbrel
I am doing good on Enbrel and just can't believe the change. My Rheumy said I looked so much better. My whole demeaner has changed she said. I look much calmer. I still have swelling in my wrist, although I don't feel any pain. The only thing that still hurts is my Knee and the swelling just doesn't want to go away. I hope that the Enbrel will kick in and it also will get better. Other than a small red mark after the injections, I have no side effects. I can walk good and we even went on a 4 mile hike Sunday. I rest during the day. I do exercise as much as I can. I can't still bend my Knee so my Yoga is limited on poses, but I do the ones I can. Life is good. My Kids will be here for Christmas and I am glad I can move.God is good.

I\'m so glad to hear the Enbrel is mostly working! It makes life so much easier when the flares are down. Have you thought about a cortisone shot to the knee? I don\'t like that drug, but I have used the shots when one joint wasn\'t under control, although not such a big joint as the knee. Have a great Christmas with your family. May the Lord bless and keep you.
