Just got the phone call from the Encourage Foundation and I qualified for assistance for Enbrel and should receive it this week. Already set up my class to learn how to inject myself, even though I am pretty sure I know most of it. But super excited and just wanted to pass it along! Just wanted to spread some good news, I am super happy! Thanks everyone for all the support!

I am nervous about tomorrow! I go back to my rheumatologist and we will be talking about getting on Humira or Enbrel. Those were the 2 he mentioned but he sent me home with info about Cimzia and Simponi. I noticed with some of these TNF blockers you have to take methotrxate too. Is that part of the injection or an pill or what? Also, if you get put on a TNF blocker do you stop your pain meds (oxy, soma)? Thanks
Asked by Scott Michael as humira methotrexate
Saw my Rheumatologist today and he wants me to think about doing a 3 month trial with Humira or Enbrel. Anyone out there have better relief with any of the TNF blockers? Is it worth it? How hard was it to qualify for assistance through these companies since I have no ins? Thanks!

Today I have pain down the left side of my face starting from my eye to the bottom of my cheek. Is this normal for someone with AS?

How was everyone diagnosed? I was just recently diagnosed by my bone and MRI scans, inflammation markers, and symptoms. But I tested negative for the HLA-B27 test.

I was just recently diagnosed with AS. I just started taking Enbrel--has anyone seen improvement from this treatment? How long did it take? Did you have any side effects?
Asked by Kristin M. Coppens as side effects enbrel
Can AS be bought on from an accident ie a hard fall or prolonged heavy lifting over 20 years or working as a chef stooped over a table for 20 years.
