Enbrel: Day 1

February 23, 2012

Inventory of afflicted joints:

  • Both ankles
  • Both knees
  • Both wrists
  • Left elbow
  • Jaw
  • Most fingers and joints on the right hand except pinkie
Yesterday was a bad day. I left work early to get my legs massaged, got a bite to eat and went home. My Enbrel was there! I wasted no time and took the first sub-cutaneous injection. I think took my Plaquenil, Mobic, and half a pain pill, grabbed about 5 pillows and 2 ice-packs, elevated my feet, and iced them. It felt fantastic.

I woke this morning to no obvious change; however, I'm told that it will take at least two weeks to get into my system.
