Simponi? | Arthritis Information

 

That's great that it has been helping you!  So far I haven't seen any results.  How long did it take before you saw some improvement?I've been on Simponi for 7 or 8 months, but can't say that I've noticed a big improvement. I see my RD in 3 weeks, so we'll discuss it then. That's great that it's working for you!I went from remicade to simponi due to insurance reasons.ins co would not pay for the added dosage of remicade that worked for me.So my doctor sugested Simponi.Asside from it helping with the pain it also cleared my skin.I usually have a tough time in the winter months with a flare up on my skin when I was on Humira and Remicade.So far this winter I have been doing great and have no flare ups at all.I hope this continues because this combination works for me.I will also add that the once a month self injection is much easier  then 3hour infusions at the doctors office.Also the injection is painless without the sting i used to get with Humira.It has been about five or six months that i have been on Simponi.  That's wonderful news, I'm so glad it's working for you.  I'm waiting for my script for the new drug Cimzia to get through insurance; so far the trial shot I had at the doctor's office has worked great.  Thank goodness for newer and more meds!
