Kineret (anakinra) "I've been on Kineret (anakinra) for several years for Schnitzler Syndrome. No other medication gave me relief, except high dose steroids, but I was pain and hives free within a couple of days of starting Kineret and back digging in the garden and walking kilometres when I had spent the previous 7 years mainly in bed. It was on the PBS list but now my hospital pays for it on my behalf. No injection site problems or side effects."

Kineret (anakinra) "Kineret works great for my Schnitzler's Syndrome. It can hurt when injected but if I warm it up to room temperature by letting it sit out for a while or hold the syringe in my hand to warm it up, it hurts A LOT less."

"I have been taking anakinra for 20 years. I can not say enough good things about the drug. Before I got the drug I some times could not get out of bed to go to work. The pain in my legs and the fatigue were over powering. After I got my first anakinra shot the symptoms went away within two days."
