Doctor injection or shots . i would rather pill form & insurance excretable.

Hi
. Your desire to not have to deal with injections is certainly understandable. Has anyone mentioned JAK inhibitors to you? They are target specific DMARDs in pill form. Here are a couple of articles providing additional information: https://rheumatoidarthritis.net/target-specific-dmards and https://rheumatoidarthritis.net/living/jak-inhibitor-treatment. Your doctor should be able to provide additional information. Wishing you the best and please feel free, if you like, to keep us posted on how things are progressing and to ask additional questions.
