rheumatoid arthritis
"Have had RA for 35 years. Stopped taking Humira due to cost since I became eligible for Medicare, and medication was no longer giving swelling and pain relief. Tried Simponi and and Orencia with minimal relief.  

After starting Xeljanz had marked swelling and pain relief in six weeks.  Had planned prior to starting Xeljanz to have two joints replaced, but have since cancelled due to improvement.

Physician is decreasing methotrexate dosage slowly to see if can discontinue.
Am so pleased."
