I have not posted anything for a while it hasn't been good and all the medicine has not worked so now its on to CIMZIA that I have to really take a look at.
Good to see you post again. While each person's reaction to any medication is not something that presupposes how another might react, i can say I had good luck with CIMZIA.

Hi . I'm glad to see you keep trying. My wife, (a contributor here), was diagnosed at age two, almost 45 years ago - before modern treatments, with the damage to show for it. Just a few years ago she started a new treatment that brought her inflammation numbers into the normal range for the first time. I know another contributor, , has had a similar experience. One never knows when the lightening might strike. Hoping this treatment is the one that does it for you. Best, Richard (RheumatoidArthritis.net Team)

You mention that your wife started a "new treatment" that brought...in your post. What treatment was it?

Hi . Kelly is now on Kevzara. an interesting back story: Kevzara is an interleuken-6 inhibitor. Recent research has actually found that IL-6 is often a primary disease driver in juvenile RA cases (see for example: https://academic.oup.com/mr/article/29/2/275/6300099). Hopefully this is an example of how new research can lead to more personalized treatments for RA. Best, Richard (RheumatoidArthritis.net Team)
