Ruxience

Hi all, so a new corse of action to start August 10th.

Ruxience treatment

Add to my story. My new hip is doing well and I am doing good at my subcutaneous infusions.

Now, moving on to Ruxience infusions to start August 10th. Hoping for no or very little reaction, but we will see. Also hoping it does help with the RA, so my hands and feet stop hurting at least as much as they do.

COVID & RA

But before that I go have my 6th covid vaccine on July 18th.

Always something new coming up. This has been in the works for a few months now, since March.

Hopefully all goes well.

Blessing and Prayers,

Casmere

<inline-mention username="Lynn Marie Witt, MSOT" user-id="3244142"/> hi, always great to hear from you. I have had no problems with the vaccine injection. I was a bit sore at the site and a slight headache, but nothing to stop me going out. I only reacted with a bad headache and fatigued once after getting the vaccines. All of my vaccines have been Phizer. I will certainly let you know how things go after my 2 infusions. The second one is on the 23rd then 6 months later. Thank you for your concern, and interest. I truly appreciate it. Blessings and Prayers Casmere

 Happy belated Birthday to you <inline-mention username="casmere" user-id="3145733"/>. We both share summer birthdays. Sorry to hear that you are feeling tired and fatigued. Takes the body to adjust sometimes to the meds. However, I am glad to hear that your rheumatologist is following up appropriately with you. Wishing you relief from fatigue and tiredness. Please know you continue to be in my thoughts. Just Keep Swimming...Lynn Marie, "RheumatoidArthritis.net Team Member"

 Thank you for the belated birthday wishes, <inline-mention username="Lynn Marie Witt, MSOT" user-id="3244142"/> it was my 70th and had a family dinner at home with chocolate fudge cake and presents. Was a quiet celebration. I am handling the fatigue and getting out. I started having more inflamation which was making it harder to go out. I finally realized I wasn't taking my anti- inflammatory meds. I don't really know why I stopped them completely. I had gone to 1 at night. Anyway I am back on them now 2 per day till I get the inflammation down again, then will go back to 1 per day. I enjoy our messages back and forth and want to thank you, and yes I donkeep swimming. ❤️ that. Blessings and Prayers 🙏 Casmerr

I’ve only gotten the three COVID injections, I haven’t decided if I should get the newest ones since I’ve been fairly good so far. I wish you the best of luck with the new meds and hope it keeps you off the prednisone! Keep on keepin’ on, DPM

Here in Ontario, Canada, the Specalists, my Rheumatologist , want me to have them up to date. Was required to get the 6th vaccine before starting Ruxience from the Pharmacist where my medication for Ruxience comes from, and is paid for. There is a new varient vaccine coming out this fall, and I expect they will want to get that one. My bodybis full of all these vaccines, medicatios, and they still want me to start another one. To be discussed at my next RA appointment in October. Anyway, thats the way it is. Blessings. Casmere
