ankylosing spondylitis

My friend has this and is having shots of Enbrel to help alleviate the pain but she is ballooning in weight. She has gone from 34C to a 40D bra size and also has IBS and says she looks pregnant. Is Enbrel to blame as a side effect do you think?

Hiya zimzam, My FIL has the injection's but no weight gain. I've just Googled " Enbrel,side effects" Plenty of info there for you:-)

[zimzam]

Thank you daisy - lot of information indeed. Nothing concerning weight gain though but I am surprised at the side effects you can get from the drug.

You're welcome zimzam, I was suprised about the side effect's as well. Happy New Year To You!.
