I was supposed to get mine last week Alison, but they sent me the 25mg
instead.  They say I should get the new once a week one next month, but
we'll see.

I offered to try it, as my rheumatology dept don't have anyone on the once a
week version yet, but if I don't like it I can change back.

I am pulling for both of you with your change.   When I changed to the once
a week shot, it still did the good job on my RA that the twice a week shots
did.   I have to admit that the shot does sting a little bit more but its
not that bad.  JMO

My rheumatologist is recommending that the Enbrel injection be done the same
day as I take the mtx.  Apparently, they are recommending that for patients
who are on both medications.

Sorry, didn't finish my post properly!  Thanks for the info Harv - I have
offered myself up as a sort of guinea pig for the department.  No one has
offered to change so far, so I said I would to see how it goes!
