I just started taking a new medication for Psoriatic Arthritis, it's called Enbrel and it seriously weakens the immune system. My condition is that my immune system is attacking itself, causing skin irritation and joint inflamation. The drug Enbrel is an injectable protein that will cause your immune system to slow down. The bad part of this is that people have died on this medication. Risk of Lymphoma, Risk of unusual cancers, Nervous system trauma, and fungal infections are the main side effects that scare me. I know I dont visit this forum often, but please pray that my body will tolerate this medicine well without the listed side effects.

Thank you

will be praying. :]

why take these dangerous drugs.. i dont understand. if it lowers your immune system then why risk taking it?

watch this:



ask God for direction instead of taking these drugs. start eating healthy, exercise, pray, etc. you might have a intolerance or allergy to food such as gluten, dairy, etc. (look up celiac disease).

good luck with your health
