On a similar note regarding relative risks in RA, here's one from www3.interscience.wiley.com, using data from the Swedish Biologics Register. published online: 29 Oct 2009 Risk in RA patients treated w/anti-TNFa therapies - Does the risk change with time? I can't access the full article tho. Happy reading! mig

I guess it doesn't apply to me except for the many many drugs I have already taken because I won't be taking any more. I do think about all of the years of stuff I have put in my body trying to halt these diseases. The steroids for so long have my intestines so thing that they tear and I have lost a lot of blood recently. I am down 3 units. I know now that I would ask a lot more questions about what I was taking except that the high dose steroids saved my life more than once. Thanks for sharing.
