Orencia is immunosuppressant. use of this makes u prone to infections. how many times have you taken this so far.
kidney infections including acute pyelonephritis are common with Orencia which can present as back pain. some times allergic reaction to medication can cause symptoms like this. you should speak to the doctor immediately and talk to him about what I mentioned above.
