Ever taken or currently taking an anti-TNF agent such as Humira, Remicade, Enbrel, Cimzia or Simponi? A rare side effect of anti-TNF Therapy is the development of multiple sclerosis (MS)-like symptoms. These side effects may be the result of pre-existing genetic/environmental susceptibility in affected patients. The GEMS research study aims to identify what may increase the occurrence of these side effects. E-mail for more info about participation in our nationwide study

Ok so has any one had problems with their ears, jaw, and rash=scaling/blisters on palms of hands, lower leg, bottom of feet, behind ear, tip of finger? If so could you tell me about what is going on? My GP seems to think its a reaction to simponi, my rhumy said it could be serious, its been almost a year of onset and have been off simponi for 2mo now, and no changes. Been tested for Syphilis and its not that, freaked me out when I saw it on the blood draw order. All other test came out normal.
