Anyone On Enbrel With These Symptoms???
Posted: 06-11-05 11:06am

Hi, I am a 22 year old female who was diagnosed with ra about 2 years ago. I am currently on enbrel and enbrel alone. I may be allergic to methotrexate so that is out. I believe the only things left for me to try are humeria and remicade. My issues with enbrel are that I was on it for about 4 months before and had my period for 4 months straight. I had to come off on enbrel during a flare up and my period straightened out. That was for about 2 months. Now that I have started back on the enbrel, I have once again had my period for 3 months now. I saw my obgyn about this and he said that since he isn't famillar with the drug he cannot help me with this. He has tried me on provera to stop the bleeding, and not even that has worked. My rheumatologist said that this isn't due to the enbrel. I don't know where to go from here. Also the enbrel makes me itchy all of the time and I always seem to have a cold. Any suggestions? Also, anyone know anything about prosit???
