    Has anyone had one of these serious side effects on a TNF Med? I am on Enbrel (for 2+ yrs now) and the recent additional "warnings" besides the increased cancer risk, etc. Are freaking me out! It works great, but I am getting scared. I am 39 and will probably be on this or other meds for my AS for the rest of my life....I am just so worried, they might shorten it :-O :'-(

    I went to my rheumy the other day. I made a list of all my "symptoms" whether I thought they were related to my AS or not, and her and I both realized the Plaquenil wasn't cutting it! I now have a bottle of the lowest dose Methotrexate pills on my counter but am so nervous to take them! I have two kids to take care of and can't be out of commission for a few days... What kinds of symptoms have you guys had? Am I freaking myself out for no reason?!
