For Rheumatoid Arthritis "After rashes, pain, nausea, and elevated liver enzymes on Remicade, then Humira, the doc switched me to Orencia. Felt very tired the evening of the loading dose, but not ill. Now I feel better than I have felt in 4 years! LOVE this stuff!"

For Rheumatoid Arthritis "I, too, have developed skin rashes and canker sores after six months of IV Orencia. I have requested a break to see if these are side effects. During the first treatments, I was feeling better with no flares but then began getting rashes and the canker sores. I have been through the mill looking for answers, and Thursday I have an appointment with a skin and cancer doctor. I am not sure what is my answer, but living with RA or the side effects is a toss-up, as both are debilitating."
