Hi all,
My doc wants me to start Cimzia in the next couple of weeks, and I'm scared! I've only ever taken Pentasa and 6-MP for maintenance until I had to start Entocort Dec 2015. Since then I haven't been able to taper off of the Entocort without a recurrence of symptoms.
I'm worried about all the potential side effects and adverse reactions, like skin cancer (my dad had melanoma) and neurological reactions (I have had unexplained tingling in my arms for the past 10 years). And all the rest of the stuff.
I'm also scared that if it works it will stop working, and I'll be back to square one.
