Hello, I am 45 years old and found out I have RA back in October (my mom has it(she uses Humera) and my sister has Lupus)I am on methotrexate(8/week),Voltaren (150mg/day)Plaquenel(400mg/day)and Lortab(4/10-500/a day) I started Remicade a month ago and just had my 2nd treatment 3 days ago.I really don't feel any relief yet, does anyone out there take this? How long before I can feel a difference? Also after I have a treatment I sleep from the afternoon till the next morning and am super tired for the next few days, I can barely keep my eyes open.Any helpful hints on how to deal with this? Thanks in advance for any advice.
