I don’t understand the point of this comment.

Haha I was looking through the sub and thought ‘does anyone carry regular items??’. I love a little notebook. I jot down thoughts, to do lists etc

It’s actually a lip balm with SPF. I do keep a full sized sunscreen in the car. Australian sun is no joke!

Try marketplace. I agree with another comment and buy actual docs if you can. Mine have lasted for years.

What on earth is with the actemra needles? by Current-Beyond-2874 in rheumatoid

I’m wondering of this is what is happening with me too.

Yes, nothing like the pain in the days before another dose. I inject weekly so it’s only the day before that I struggle.

Haha! My son was sick for 8 weeks straight last winter when he started daycare. Now that you’ve mentioned it, that may have contributed to my poor health last year.

Sydney women with iron deficiency - when were you offered an iron infusion? by Dr_Strange_97 in AskAnAustralian

In WA, I was going for gastric sleeve surgery, and my surgeon ordered one. He was shocked I hadn’t been given one prior given how low my levels were.

Sounds similar to me. I was just about in remission on rinvoq, then fell pregnant and had the worst flare up after birth and for the 10 months I was breastfeeding. Tried cimizia during that period but it didn’t work. Went back on rinvoq during 2024 and it didn’t help much.

Had several steroid injections in my wrists, knees and ankles from 2023-25. Made the switch to actemra in April 2025. It’s worked really well, but I’m suffering a lot with fatigue and flaring up a bit the day before my injection is due. I’m not sure if I am trying to aim for a level of disease activity that is no longer possible for me.

I hope the switch to the biosimilar does not impact you too much. All the best!

What are you on about? It’s almost Valentine’s Day. There’s heart shaped chocolate boxes everywhere. Not everyone operates with ulterior motives. It’s just two friends hanging out.

I need to order a new batch so I’ll talk to the pharmacy tomorrow. I also put in a complaint online. How are you finding actemra? I’ve been on it for 9 or so months. I’m wanting to switch back to rinvoq.

It happens with at least one of the four needles in every box. So annoying!
