Enbrel is what your sister takes. It must be kept in the fridge. She gets it once a week and the shot stings like crazy for the first 10 -15 seconds. Good luck with it. Just don't jerk when the spring puts the shot in or it will make it a lot worse. If she can do it, you can do it. Roger, Todd, Nanny and myself have given her the shots depending on who is around.
Yep. Hope it helps. You're taking it along with methotrexate? (I'm sure they'll tell you, but make sure that you let it rest out of the fridge for about 10-15 mins before you do it. It makes it a lot easier.)
I think I'll be taking it with methotrexate, yeah. But like I said in my later post, it's not Enbrel after all, but Humira. The nurse made a bit of a booboo with the ordering. I should be getting it sometime this week... :o)
