I tried benlysta during the pandemic for a year. I felt like I gained weight but it was the pandemic. Anyhoo I stopped it after a year because it didn't help. I just started Saphnelo and its sometimey. Every other infusion works for my arthritis pain.

I did try benlysta for 6 months no improvement in fact was making me feel worse , I try to hang in there to see if I’d feel better but no way so I stopped

After 8 months of giving myself the Benlysta injections didn't see any improvement. It had gotten to the point to where I dreaded giving myself the injections and had started to have panic attacks which didn't help any.
Just started the Saphnelo infusions last week. Already see a difference.

Benlysta made me feel worse and didn’t help me one bit . I tried it for 6 months but no improvement.

It didn't help me. You may want to try it cause it does help a lot of people. I'm on rituximab infusions and it's working great for me. Read my story and I talk about it.
