Been on humari for around 18 months now and it just doesn't seem to be working anymore. Had to up steroids and still on hydroxychlorine and also need naproxen. Should I stop injecting this as really worried about low immunity and other side effects when I don't seem to be getting any benefit. Anyone else feel the same

I am currently on baricinib which is a bio one a JAK inhibitor which is not entirely working I still have my early morning stiffness but I also take MTX injections weekly I have to admit though over years I have developed OA in a few fingers thumbs and knees my knee replacement for 26th march was cancelled
I can't remember the last one I was on as has been so many over 20 years I was brilliant on it for 3 years then developed neuralgia so was taken off because it was shown in some cases to bring on MS and neuralgia is an early indication apparently I was gutted
Which is the cycle of this disease just when you think your great and have control it decides to morph and your meds stop working , Iwoul Ring the specialist nurses see whether tell you to cancel they may be able to give you a steroid injection to get you over the 3 months I never take oral steroids I always have injections from my GP or the specialist nurses
