OP psr Apprentice_AS_Kicker P Joined: Aug 2013 Posts: 90	Thanks for all the replies, everyone. I have now been on Remicade (inflectra) for 1.5 years. My morning stiffness is quite a bit better, but other than that, I am struggling with plantar fasciatis, neuromas in my toes, stiff lower back (unable to bend forward), stiff neck and shoulders. Initially, I wonder if I should switch to cosentyx...
