Great segment. I was not properly diagnosed for 20 years until late 1999. At that point I started ENBREL and it immediately and drastically changed my life for the better. My only addition is that years of fatigue led in my case to episodes of depression, which also has gradually disappeared after 20 years on ENBREL.
