Hey
I haven't tried Rinvoq, but I am here to tell you that i am on my 4th biologic and the longest one. It's so normal to feel what you are feeling, after having to try and failed.
I know everyone can be different and can take some time to find what works best for each one. I am right now on Cosentyx and going 3 years almost. It took some time and lots of discouragement, but it was worth it.
I hope you can find what is best for you and get some relief soon,
Hugs !!!
Nicky (Team Member)Hello
- I am on Xeljanz (JAK inhibitor) and it's the only (out of 5) treatment that has helped. I know there is a box warning on it, but I gave it a try. It resolved most of my debilitating enthesitis within months and has helped me get back to movement and activities. I am not without pain, but this JAK has been 80% effective for me. I have had no lasting adverse side effects and am grateful I can use it. I wanted to stop by and drop off a link to an article that may help https://axialspondyloarthritis.net/treatment/jak-inhibitors - Wishing you well. Rebecca (team member)
