I hope someone can help me on this one.  I had my second dose of Cimzia on Sat.  I was a little tired and didn't feel so hot, but that is kinda normal anyway.  But, On Mon. My legs started to hurt, it feels like the muscle down the outside of my legs where I got the shots.  It just hurts more every day. Has this happened to anyone else.  I just don't know why it would take 2 days to hurt, and its really hurting bad today.  Any help or insight would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Dory

Sorry Dory, I haven't had an experience like that. I get bruises that last a couple weeks, but no muscle pain. Have you called the people at Cimplicity? They're good with reaction possibilities...

Sorry, but I didn't have any problems like this while on it and don't remember hearing about anyone else having them while I was on the clinical trial.  I hope it's not from the Cimzia!

Since my first maintenance dose I've experiencing a musclo-sclerosis type sensation throughout my muscles of my body, for instance I've

tried sprinting up the stairs and it felt like the more I put emphasis on my muscles the less they responded. Frankly I've gotten scared, but

after the two weeks they seem to slowly regain stimuli, but still have that feeling...

Thanks for the responses.  I did call the people at cimplicity, spoke to a nurse there, and they have never heard of this problem.  It's probably just sore from the shots, was the conclusion.  Next time I'll have it done in my abdomen and see what happens. Maybe I just can't get them in the legs?  This disease and the medications are so very confusing, and different for everyone.

thanks again

Dory
