I get simponi aria infusion every eight weeks. I wasn't convinced that it was working until I had to wait longer because of scheduling. My fingers were hurting something terrible so now I know t works for the fingers. I don't think it is helping my back however.

Simponi had helped my heel neck and hands tremendously unfortunately I'm fighting with insurance to continue paying for this treatment as it is very costly.

I have just been put on this and its slowly helping me so far the swelling in my hands has gone done a lot and my pain is a little better but not gone,if I lift or overdo it I will wake up the next day swollen and in pain. My eyes haven't got any better yet but I haven't been on it for a whole month yet so I'm hoping it will continue to heal my issues just have to wait and see.

My son started on Simponi about 10 years ago. He said it was the only thing that got him out of bed every day and he could even continue to work at his job. (A lot of stairs). Unfortunately, the last receipt from the pharmacist showed a total of $10,587.00 per injection in Alaska. Most was paid by the investigational study benefits, but when he started on it, the cost was $1,500 per injection.
