Subject: knee free of pain
After 6 years of pain all the usual types of drugs and surgery on my inflamed knee- last week I had an injection of inflixomab - wow my knee has shrunk virtually overnight and no pain beginning to feel normal again! My consultant has only used this procedure once before but is pretty impressed with results

That is good to hear Angus, i didn't know they could inject that into the knee, is that one of the biologic drugs?

I wonder if this is also available in the US? I am curious about that. I will mention that to my Dr.
