I just heard about Kevzara! I'm currently trying Leflunomide, after Methotrexate caused elevated liver damage (almost two years!), but my doctor says Kevzara is next in line for me.

I'm very excited, even tho' my insurance won't cover it. I see that you all have found ways to get help and I'll be coming back to this Post if Leflunomide is also hard on my liver.

My husband's Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia was put into Total Remission four years ago with six infusions of a monoclonal antibody drug! NO side effects, just complete success. He is still in total remission.

l am so excited to find this group.
