Question
I have RA and MS my question is do I have to decide between which disease to let be in control? If one is being treated , I have to suffer with the other. I am currently awaitng being approved for social security disability – I finally gave up and retired October 2006. Please give me some hope in finding out a possible solution. Thank you.
Answer
Some treatments for RA and MS can be given together. Your rheumatologist and neurologist need to discuss. Unfortunately the anti-TNF drugs (Enbrel, Remicade and Humira) cannot be used in MS patients.
