  • I have polyarticular jra,iv had it since I was 6 1/2 months, I take humaira,heavy doses of methotrexate,embrel,and on occasion remicade(I.v infusion)

  • @peaceloveartritis Jordan was 2 when her arthritis showed up and she has poly JRA too. She's been on Enbrel, Humira and just started Remicade infusions 4 weeks ago. So far so good :) Her eyes are inflammation free for the first time in months! I just hope her weekly MTX shot and her Remicade puts her into remission.

  • Ohhh, she did such a good job!

    I have JRA as well and am on Humira and Methotrexate injections...I hope she's doing good! <3

  • She's on oral MTX too :( She hates it but she knows what can happen if she doesn't take it. She's much rather take the meds and the shot then not be able to run and play again. Hope you're doing good too ♥

  • What does she have to have the shot for?

  • She has Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis and Uveitis. Since this video she's switched medication and is now on Humira doing an injections once every 2 weeks instead of once a week.

  • The video of your daughter getting her injection helped my daughter get used to taking hers, so we wanted to post one of our own in the hopes it will help others.

    Thank you very much, and I hope that your daughter is doing well with her medication.

  • She is a brave little girl, I take the autoinjecter shot of Enbrel and it flat hurts and burns.........

  • Iv been doing embrel since I was 5 I have polyarticular jra.........I also take humaira, and methotrexate,and in occasion I get rimicade....(I.v infusion) im13

  • wow you did so well little girl. I've been taking enbrel since 2006 for Ankylosing Spondylitis, and it's time for me to take it this week, I am 2 days late..I hate the shot so much...watching you gave me courage. I am 29!

  • i have JRA too but i get cimzia. i started after i was out of school for 2 months due too a flareup. i hope jordan is better now. oh and depending where u live there are some nice JRA camps its alot of fun.

  • You did such a good job!!! I take enbrel every week too and you do a way better job than me...and I'm 29.

  • why did was her medications switched? I have had JRA since I was 18 mo old now I'm 34 and have been taking the Enbrel for almost 1 yrs. What makes Humira different for her?

  • My daughter Abigail is about to start Enbrel after a really bad JRA flareup... she took it about 6 years ago and it worked so well!

    She, luckily, doesnt have the eye inflamation, but she is one of the youngest cases of Polyarticular JRA kiddos they have seen... she's had it since 7 1/2 mos.

    I think I'll record her tomorrow when we start it and share with your daughter. :) It's good for them to see they aren't alone.
