Well this sucks. Rheumatologist just called me. My Vectra Scale test came back, I went from moderate to severe in a year. The Cimzia isnt effective. So now, instead of biweekly shots that target TNF, (these are cells within my immune system), I am now being switched to a weekly shot (Orencia) that targets T-Cells. Sweet! I knew things were getting worse. I pray this new med helps slow down this damn disease!! On a positive note, research is getting better, where they will start to be able to determine what meds will help each patient, using the Vectra Scale. She said she sees this happening in the near future. No cure in the future...as of yet. Not looking for pity...just venting. Thanks.
