I have used Enbrel for many years and it has been a lifesaver for my psoriatic arthritis! I am not only clear of psoriasis, but it has also improved the arthritis by 90%.

I have been taking enbrel for over a year now. It has worked wonders on my arthritis. I have tried everything, and this is the only thing that has worked.
This drug worked like magic for me, going from not being able to dress myself, tie shoelaces or buttons to being totally mobile again within 2 doses! Also worked wonders on psoriasis, all with no outward side-effects for more than a year now! Thank you!
I have used Enbrel since it was approved. I like the results much better than using Methotrexate alone. The psoriasis has been reduced from moderately severe to mild.
I didn't want to take enbrel when my dr. first suggested it but I did take it and am very glad I did. It has made a big difference in my life. I don't have to live with the pain of RA and the horrible itching from PA. I hope it always continues to work for me. I don't even mind the injections any more but I know that I will feel better because of it.
I have used Enbrel for Psoriatic Arthritis ever since it was approved. I just started with Simponi a few months ago. Some of the psoriasis has returned on my scalp. I like the idea of only one injection a month but I have a feeling I'll be going back to Enbrel.
Enbrel has worked wonders...although after being on it for a year now I feel as though I have hit a bit of a plateau. My joint pain has started to re-materialize.
My first injection of Enbrel caused me more pain and stiffness then I had before I used the medicine. The right side of my body and my hands hurt so much... happens to be the side I injected. NO way is this for me, it made my skin red and so painful, my joints are stiff and I have so much more pain. My scalp is much more itchy. Also gave me chills and made me feel like I had the flu. I wish I could fine something to stop the pain and my joints from getting deformed.
Definitely works but I am very young to have this illness and the headaches and fatigue is killing me. Not sure if I want to try something new though. It helped about 90% "most" of the time, just wondering if there is anything to make me 100% again.
I loved it. I had taken it for almost ten years. It got the arthritis under control almost 100%, and the psoriasis was almost gone but, after ten years, the doctors tell me I have built up an immunity to it. So we try some new medicines.
