: Does anyone take Enbrel with success?
: I am taking Arava and Prednesone at the present time with no success.
: My doctor wants me to add Enbrel shots twice a week along with the daily does of Arava and Prednesone.
: Can this be fatal? My doctor wants me to take it Friday. Can someone answer before then.

: Thank you.

I have been on ENBREL for over 1 year now. It took about a month to work but after that I was pleased with the results. The only problem is that I got sick about 6 months into taking it and had to go off of it for 1 month and ever since then it has not seemed to have the same effect. It seems to me like it stopped working after I started up again. hope this helps.
