Struggling with RA Diagnosis and Medication

Ive had RA for at least 20 yrs been diagnosed for 13 now.seen rheumatologist was told couldnt do anything for me bcuz of my contact with hep b. but im trying to find a loophole so can get the help i need.

I am getting that most people with this condition, have to switch off medication every so often. This can be recently diagnosed people on new medication, a combination of medication, and periodically those who have had the condition for years have to go back to previous medication they used. I have joined a number of groups, and I have yet to find a single person who have steadily stayed on a medication for longer than 3-4 yrs. It's as of the medication build an immunity very quickly, or the progression of the condition is much more rapid than medication claims to be able to do with slowing it down.

I'm scared to use any if the medicines due to the side effects they cause

My new doc prescribed Simponi injections every two months but they only last around a month for me. After that, pain at its worst!! I’m looking for a new treatment plan. Be your own advocate!
