Hello just greeting all and wondering anyone from N.C. does not matter anyway. I am thankful to have a relationship although my mate just found out they have fibromyalgia makes things interesting. i just started 2 months ago on enbrel. anyone out there care to share how it is going for them and how longso far going fairly well for the beginning, i get it free on a program and don't mind injecting myself. take care all it is a strange and frustrating life with AS i hav had for 8 years but they just proved for sure a few months ago. hope you all find somethin to take your mind off i am trying a few small tattooss.

Hey Steve

Welcome to our fast growing group. I know you will find lots of info and friends here on KA. I don't take enbrel so I can't help you there but many here do use it and I'm sure they will get back to you soon.

John

Hi Steve

Welcome to the family.

My son Eric has taken Enbrel in the past. I say in the past as it has put him into remission twice now. He has been off the Enbrel since the end of June this time.

Best of luck to you, and maybe you will be in remission soon also.
