For me Actemera was not effective. I wish it had been but well who knows with these? <br /><br />3. Shingles - yes but all of these meds can cause this. I had my first bout when I was 54, I received the older vaccine and have not had it again. However that medication is an older drug made form live bacteria. Generally they will require you to be off of any biologic medication for at least 3 months before you have the older inoculation. <br /><br />The newer inoculation is not made form live virus and it is more effective and one need not be off one of these biologics in order to have it. You want the newer vaccine.<br /><br />3. TNF inhibitors tend to have lower life spans the more you use. Usually the first is the most long lasting. Form these they tend to decline in useful time, so your experience is typical I think. I now use Rituxan and have for 4 years it is my 6th biologic, i love it but it is likely a 3rd level after using JAK inhibitors - Actemera or XELJANZ are JAK inhibitors albeit different kinds.

I spoke to a lady called Andie. I told her I didn't want the products (bellaplex and Luminque) and asked how to return the try it before you but it programme samples. Andie was a bit indignant and tried to talk me into trying them before I ask to return. I told her I changed my mind and I just don't want them anymore. After a few 'robust' words with Andie, she finally backed down. She quoted me a return ID for each of the two packages received and told me I won't get billed or receive any further packages. Like Karen, I am not counting my chickens but I hope it works out. I have taken down thorough notes, names, times ID numbers etc in the hopes my order is truely cancelled. Andie told me to keep the products and they don't need them back but I think I might try Ebay however and keep these products unopened in the event I want to return them at any point.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10359691632349418005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4008940496831462029.post-30702036891683621242014-04-03T21:12:47.599-07:002014-04-03T21:12:47.599-07:00I have also just cancelled, spoke to a lady called...I have also just cancelled, spoke to a lady called Andie in the states.
