Greetings! I've been following your website for a long time now and finally got the courage to go ahead and give you a shout out from Dallas Texas! Just wanted to tell you keep up the excellent work!

I have failed to do anything with this other than adding songs to the playlist.

Seems appropriate that a spammer would comment on this. Comment deleted. :P

My last dose of Simponi was back in mid June. I have not refilled it because my doctor wants me to try Taltz, which is an IL-17 inhibitor, and she wanted me to be off the TNFi for 4 weeks before I start on it.

Up until early last week, I felt awful. I hurt, I felt worn down, and I kept feeling like I was on the verge of getting sick in some fashion. Now that I'm about a week past when I should have done the Simponi shot, I can tell the effects of it have left my system and I have been feeling a lot better. Sure, I still hurt from time to time, and I still have whatever neurologic nonsense is going on, but I have an energy that I haven't had in months.

I'm quite hopeful that Taltz will be the magic solution. I want to do more, I want to stop being so sedentary, and I feel like there's a light at the end of the tunnel.

Apparently I'm past the point of brain'ing where I can understand how to get those lyrics formatted properly. I don't care though.

Now I use a Macbook for work. RIP.

Almost a month later than the authoring of this post and I'm in a lot of pain. This is most certainly an AS flare, which is common with autoimmune disorders. In short, the treatment isn't able to control spikes in the body fighting itself, and it happens periodically during treatment, usually lasting a few days, then back to normal-ish.

I'm starting to think that TNF inhibitors aren't working for me though. The IL-17 inhibitor worked well for a period of time, but then it didn't. This might have some diagnostic value for my rheumatologist, and I need to remember it for my next appointment.

I admit that method looks like more fun.

How do the yardstickless generation expect to get stuff out that falls between the desk and the wall?

It only took 11 years for you to say such a thing. :P

I just saw this. Congrats!
