Yessssss! Anti-flare days! (I LOVE that name!) My blessed mother-in-law had 35 years of anti-flare. I keep thinking, if SHE could have that, I can, too! All I have to do is wait for it!
So — I’m waiting — and although it hasn’t happened as yet, I’m sure it will, very soon. All I have to do is keep praying…
Mcmarcia – reality says that in order to continue to research new drugs, the major drug companies need to make money to pay for that research. The funding of medication research is complex. But, I agree, it isn’t fair to those of us who need this kind of medication!

hey out there, what is with this ,antiflare, as it hurts to type???
I need ENBREL, …..it is awful extending the patent rights for BIOLOGIC DRUGS for 12- 14 years…to forever. People are suffering disease progression, disability and premature death due to lack of ENBREL, HUMIRA, RITUXAN, etc. no more toxic MTX or prednisone. I feel the mac truck both coming and going. These medications are no different than insuln for a diabetic. RA is crippling, what gives here??? why such corruption of health care ethics and discrimination to people who wnat access to biologics affordibly who else cares ????

it’s amazing how one little “anti-flare” will fill us with enough HOPE to get us thru whatever comes next.
sooooooooo glad you got to experience some precious pain-free
time!
