Kstarr077…there is a foundation you can apply to and if you meet the criteria your Embrel will be totally covered. My husband and I both have RA and he qualifies for Embrel, I qualify for Humira! We are on SS and would never be able to afford it if not for the foundations!

Did the Embrel añd humira work? My hands are so swollen in am and after I take Prednisone, methotrexate (once a week), folic acid, Plaquenil, and diltiazem For high BP my swelling goes down but not 100%. I live on SS and some ira. When savings gone I will be done. I will apply for humira if emril does not give me free. Does the humira get rid of damage to your joints? And swelling in hands?

I am waiting for Amgen to reply to me for Embrel. I will apply for humira next. Do they get rid of hand swelling?
