My husband has RA and other dx so his RA put him on this medication for research it was a miracle drug for him. I could not believe it!
After the research and no longer on medication. He could really tell the difference. We try to get this medicine at the pharmacy and it was $1200. And we could not afford tht !

Starting Cimzia today. Hope it works. Have tried just about everything else. Either didn't work or too many side effects.
Not looking forward to the double loading dose. I hear it is hard on you for a couple of days. Anything is worth it if I get some relief. Fingers crossed!
I live in Canada so was able to get the drug through insurance. What the insurance didn't cover Cimzia picked up the rest.
There are ways to get this drug through Cimzia at no cost through programs they offer in US and Canada. Please look into them.

This sounds crazy but trust me it works. Get the script and contact Canadian pharmacies. My boss had a steroid that with his Medicare still ran 2700 a month. He went to Canadian pharmacy online through the mail and gets 2 of his meds cheap. His primary stomach med was $380 these cost him $40 and the other med was 2700 is between 100-200 when he needs it. Crazy how much it costs online.
