Good update KatT. 
I don't recall anyone else mentioning face swelling after injection, as it also happened with Humira I'm thinking it may be time to ask for Stelara , Cosentyx or Tremfya as they are different to Simponi and Humira. Got to be worth a try in my opinion.
They found I had some small stones when I got a bladder infection a few years ago, but said they were nothing to worry about. At least the pain went away in the end, could have been a muscle ?
As for giving up smoking, it's not easy but I achieved it about 10 years ago by joining an online forum (sadly gone now) the way it worked was to start your thread and each day make a post. The other members would encourage you to keep going and some of the advice was very helpful, someone told me to sip cranberry juice every time I wanted a smoke (I hate the stuff) but it worked.
I'm sure if you wanted to try a thread here you would get a lot of support, but determination is your biggest helper.
