Does anyone have experience with this? I've just done my 9th injection (1mL 2x Wkly) and other than a couple hours here and there, I haven't noticed any improvement. How long were you on it and how long before you saw improvement, if any? This is my 4th medication besides prednisone that I've tried since dx.

I plan to do that Thursday when I see a couple of them. I also realize that for most it takes about 3 mo to know if it is doing anything. I'm just curious as to if anyone saw a difference. I'm only 1+ month in.
