| 4 | Crohns | Consistent burning of feet, itchy scalp | 1 & 3/4 yrs of "in-remission" per my doctor. Just now beginning to see some side effects of crohns coming back and hopeful they can be minimized or eliminated. Well worth the effort to learn self-injection (in-stomach) after hand-warming the drug for 10-15 mins. I tried injections in leg and found them extremely painful. | M | 74 | 82 weeks 40 mg 2X M | 1/22/2012 | 1 | Rheumatoid Arthritis | Took Humira for 2 years. Just Got diagnosed with Stage 4 lymphoma. I have been given 6 months left to live without treatment. Humira helped the RA but it was not worth my life. | M | 73 | 2 years | 2/10/2013 | 2 | Inflammatory Arthritis | My blood pressure is much higher than pre-Humira; I am short of breath and exhausted all day; I now have psoriasis in both ears; I feel some tingling in my face; my memory seems to be shorting out from time to time. Frequent headaches. | I have yet to feel any significant improvement in my leg pain or shoulders and hands. My mood is pretty low. I have been on prednisone for a couple of years, and now with the addition of Humira, I feel pretty bad. I'm going to see my internist before I return to the rheumatologist to see if I can make some improvements to my condition. I'm really tired of all the meds. | F | 71 | 7 weeks 2X M | 10/18/2010 | 1 | RA | DEATH!!! | My mom died in January 2011 due to Humira. She went to emerg. on New Years Eve and found out she had a rare form of Leukemia.....she didn't survive 3 weeks from then. 3 weeks before her blood tests were normal. Just a warning to anyone taking this. She thought she had the flu. | F | 71 | 1X W | 9/20/2011 | 4 | Crohn's Colitia | After getting off prednisone, I started having side effects from the Humira. Hair loss, swollen legs, shortness of breath. Had few side effects at first. | Had very little pain at injection site. I used my legs, brought the med to room temperature for 30 minutes. I'm a nurse, so had no qualms about the injections. Humira brought my Crohn's under control. Wish there was more info about its use in the elderly. | F | 70 | 9 months 40mg 2X M | 4/29/2012 | 5 | rheumatoid arthritis | I began taking Humira in September,2008. Toward the end of the year I entered my rating and listed a problem I was having:spots appearing on the front of my legs, and the beginning of it spreading on my body. I heard from several of you indicating it might be psoriasis. I went to a dermatologist who confirmed your diagnosis! And funny thing, I had forgotten that my Dad had psoriasis. The dermatologist suggested that instead of rheumatoid arthritis, it might be psoriastic arthritis. He is having me continue taking Humira. I use triamcinolone acetonide cream usp, 0,1%, on my legs, which has cleared them up, and a non'perfumed lotion on the rest of my body to counteract the dry air experienced in my part of the country. I administer the shots every 2 weeks and am doing well with them. My largest area of pain had been in my hands, and they are doing much better. My skin has become much healthier, and the woman I have giving me massages tells me she can feel a big difference in the bone are | For me Humira is doing its job, giving me the ability to lead my life pain-free, enjoying my paper art hobbies. | F | 69 | 8 months | 5/11/2009 | 4 | rheumatoid arthritis | I am fairly new to Humira - I am getting ready to give myself my 6th pen, having started in September, 2008, using it every 2 weeks. It has helped tremendously with pain in my hands and joints, and I find my strength is back to levels I had prior to my first RA flare 8 1/2 years ago. I do have one disturbing thing happening which I believe to be a side effect. I have about a dozen red spots which have appeared on my legs.They range in size from 1/4" to 1/2", with the larger ones being somewhat flakey in the center. They do not itch. I appear to have more of them developing on the trunk of my body, but they are very light at this time. | I hope that if some one has had this same side effect and found a way to stop it, you can let me know. I would hate to have to stop taking Humira, as I enjoy feeling pain free and "normal" again! | F | 69 | 3 months | 12/4/2008 | 1 | RA | bone marrow depression | Only somewhat relieved pain. Not worth dying over and I had a near death experience with it. | F | 68 | 15 months | 7/13/2009 | 4 | Ulcerated colitis | No side effects what so ever | Have only taken 3 sets of shots,but symptoms seem to have cleared. Almost done weening off of prednisone and asacol. Can't wait to see what happens a week or so after all meds are stopped. Notice some fatigue, but as I work out 3 times a week, this may help. Don't sleep much as others have said, usually about 6-7 hours a night. | M | 67 | 6 weeks | 12/16/2009 | 4 | RA | also taking 1 prednisone and MTX which increased to 10 a week and now sometimes i feel it is hard to breath and it almost causes me to panic. | the drug works but if i exercise or use my hands more doing something then that part will hurt again. If i ride my stationary bike then my hip flexors hurt and make it hard to left my leg. I want to use my hands so I wish that was better as well as I want to exercise but can't. | M | 66 | 4 months | 11/26/2009 | 4 | Rheumatoid nodule in my eye | My rheumatologist prescribed Humira in December 2008, after I had developed a rheumatoid nodule in my left eye. I had been taking Enbrel for approx.5 yrs. and it saved my life. I was not aware that RA could affect one's organs. I have not experienced any side effects from Humira so far. | I don't understand the reason my doc didn't start me on Humira instead of Enbrel but since taking it I have so far not experienced any side effects nor have I had head colds, flu or any other maladies. I might also add I had been taking methotrexate in combination with both the above drugs and noticed substantial hair loss. Since Methotrexate is a cancer drug it made sense. I researched an alternative and my doc switched me to Sulfasalazin and I don't seem to be losing as much hair. Please ladies - do your research! | F | 65 | 15 months 2X M | 3/18/2010 | 3 | RA | very bad runny nose,going bald,sight problems,knee pain ,terrible leg cramps,stomach pain,pain in feet,loss of memory long and short term,runny eyes,prostrate problems | Before I started Humira I was ready to put a gun in my mouth,the RA is better ,but the side effectsthat go with it I don`t know which is worst, not to menshion the cost of the drug.It`s feel bad with ,it`s feel bad with out it ,go bankrupt paying for it! | M | 65 | 3.5 years 40MG 2X M | 3/29/2013 | 1 | psoriasis | I am almost 66yrs. old and have acne (I think?). Never had a blemish on my face for over 40 yrs. My foot is swollen and aches.I get under 6 hrs. of sleep. I just can't sleep. never had a ploblem before. | I have been off humira for 2 months. BAD DRUG | F | 65 | 3 weeks 40 mg 1X W | 5/20/2012 | 1 | crohns | Body pain damaged finger joints increased inflamation | stoping it going back to steriods | M | 65 | 10 months 40 1X O | 2/10/2010 | 4 | RA | Humira was wonderful for my RA symptoms,significant relief. The dose was increased from bi-weekly following a number of surgeries(repair of torn tendon, knee replacement.) I was also taking 5mg. prednisone OD....BEWARE of lowering you immune system...I now have Merkel Cell Carcinoma..very rare but most likely from my impaired immune system. Have any blemish checked immediately and tell dermatologist you take Humira! Do not ignore them...this could save your life. | Humira gave me back my life...I could finally move again. Humira does loose some of its effectiveness when it has to be stopped and started (as for surgery) frequently. That is why in my case I went from twice a month to weekly. Unfortunately repairing my immune system is not so easy....take with caution and never ignore even a small blemish particularly on face or neck. Merkel Cell is very rare but attacks those with impared immune systems. | F | 64 | 8 years 40 mg 1X W | 11/6/2010 | 1 | Crohn's | Shortness of breath. Extreme upper leg fatigue. Stopped taking it a year ago and side effects came back once again. | Have had all the tests for heart, lung, and so on. All is well. Being a "biologic" nobody knows how long it can stay in the body. I would not recommend this medicine to anybody. | F | 64 | 10 months 2X M | 5/27/2011 | 5 | RA | I have none..... | I appreciate their helping with the co-pay! | M | 63 | 3 years 40 mg 2X M | 5/11/2012 | 5 | Rheumatoid arthritis | None | F | 63 | 10 years 40 mg | 12/2/2011 | 4 | ra | pain in lower left back (kidney) left testicle headaches for a few days after shots i shoot every 2 weeks fatigue | humira seems to work for me my hands are much better I HAVE TO SAY IM VERY APPRECIATIVE TO ABBOT FOR THERE ASSISTANCE PROGRAM WITHOUT IT ID BE SCREWED THANKS AGAIN | M | 63 | 16 weeks 40mg 1X O | 1/30/2011 | 1 | RA | DEATH!! | My aunt went into hospital with what they thought was an allergic reaction to another drug and she died 2 weeks later. 2 days after they finally determined she had lymphoma. Do not take a chance with this drug! They say slight chance of lymphoma occurring but I think the odds are greater than slight! | F | 63 | 1 years 1X D | 4/1/2012 | 5 | Rheumatoid Arthritis | No side effects. Slight burning sensation during injection. | It began working about 6 weeks after starting. I take it every two weeks along with methotrexate taken weekly. One of the best medications I've ever taken in terms of effectiveness. | M | 62 | 4 years | 6/30/2007 | 5 | Rheumatoid Arthritis 34years | Injection site, red, swollen, itchy. No reaction when I let it come to room temperature for 30 minutes. My improvement was gradual. I lost my appetite and 80 pounds over 1 1/2 years. I don't think Humira was responsible. It's still a happy surprise when I can do something I couldn't do before. Like housework,cooking,self-care, and slow walks. | I also take prednisone, MTX oral, Plaquenil and at the onset of a flare I take Tylenol #3 which usually stops the flare. I only inject arms and legs, rotating every 2 weeks. I'm happy and in good shape all things considered. The support team is very helpful. Frankly, I'd take almost anything to improve my quality of life. | F | 62 | 2 years | 5/3/2008 | 3 | plaque psoriasis | Had been on Raptiva for 2 yr.with some improvement.Started Humira 6 weeks ago and until last week would have given it a 5.Little red spots started appearing all over my arm. It almost looked like measles and has now spread to my other arm and my legs. | However my scalp and fingers are in complete remission after the 1st 3 wk. Initially my legs improved as well but in the past couple of days are "plaquing" up again. Will see my doc on Monday and decide what to do. Hope this is a temporary side effect. Anyone with similar problem please advise. | M | 62 | 6 weeks | 1/1/2009 | 1 | RA | death | death within 9 months of diagnosis from rare form of bile duct cancer, death in March 2012 | F | 62 | 1X D | 3/31/2012 | 2 | severe plaque psoriasis | severe fatigue; severe dry mouth; generalized weakness; mental fogginess | 5 months psoriasis is well-controlled after the first 12 weeks, but I had a severe exacerbation after the first month; I'm not sure if the side effects are worth it - I just can't stay awake even while driving | M | 61 | 30mg 2X M | 5/25/2011 | 1 | severe Rheumatoid arthritis | Eleven [11] days after my first injection of humira I developed a huge swelling at the injection site, and a full body very itchy rash which took me to the ER, i had to take a lot od steroids for a long time [3 months], as well as Tagamet and Benedryl. It took two weeks for the rash to clear up but as the drug is long lasting in your system I was in steroids for 3 months. | Not enough data, not enough testing and info. I subsequently developed diabetes from the steroids and NO ONE can tell me why the reaction began 11 days post injection. | F | 61 | 1 days | 6/21/2006 | 1 | Psoriasis | Face and neck swelled up. Horrible rash from the top of my head to the bottom of my feet. All over my body. Fatigue and joint in my chest and shoulders ache terribly. Started on my third week of injection. | The first two weeks I was happy as my Psoriasis was looking better. Then the rash started and it was downhill from there. Very concerned about this medication on Predisone to help ease the itching. | F | 61 | 5 weeks | 3/21/2009 | 5 | Psorisasis | None that I can discern. Have taken about 10 subcutaneous injections so far without any obvious side effects. | I'm a 60 y.o. male and the Psoriasis came out of nowhere. No family history of it. I had been taking Atenolol, a beta blocker, for about 5 years prior to the Psoriasis and there appears to be a possible "link" between Psoriasis and Atenolol. I just changed to another beta blocker (Toprol-XL) and we'll see if that makes a difference. The Humira is working very well. Most of the plaque is gone and the original spots are now just faded pink. My dermatologist says these should continue to clear. So far, so good. | M | 60 | 100 days | 1/7/2010 | 5 | Rheumatoid arthritis | None | This has been a miracle drug for me,started working almost immediately after my first injection.I stopped taking methotrexate after a year and a half because I had a hard time with side effects and it was only partially effective.Fortunately for me my health insurance pays most of the cost (I only have a small co-pay) because it's very expensive! | M | 60 | 4 months 40 mg 2X M | 12/6/2011 History | 4 | psoratic arthritis, crohn's | possibly lowered B12, I have neuropathy which is worse, also ringing in my ears (started 2 mos after humira) but not sure if from humira. I also get a lg welt at site but goes away in 2 days. I had some blockage in my common bile duct also since starting this. | I was on a high dose of prednisone, and entocort and after a few months starting this I am down to 5 mg. I tried remicade and had a reaction after 2nd and 3rd dose. I was having many joint problems and am now much improved. I also worry about any long term effects, since if I am even late a few days I can feel it. This is truly a miracle drug for those that need it. I also have been very healthy virus-wise since starting. | F | 60 | 8 months | 8/19/2008 | 1 | Rheumatoid arthritis | After receiving the 3rd injection I began to develop a rash on my right arm, from there I developed a very severe itchy rash from head to toe; I though I had a severe case of the chicken pox which I did not. I could not go out in the sun because it would cause unbearable severe itching. This medicine caused permanent scars and dark marks all over my body. It has been 3 yrs and I still have a slight area that has not quite healed. I spend 6 months with little sleep because of the unbearable itching and severe depression. A dermatologist had to try various medicines to finally control it. I had never had a reaction to any medicines until I took Humira. It was like a horrible nightmare. | I would hate for anyone else to go thru what I did. It may work for others but it caused severe damage to my skin. I just shiver whenever I here the word Humira. I am now on Methotrexate and Remicade and so far no rash. | F | 60 | 6 weeks | 4/14/2007 | 5 | Rheumatoid Arthritis | I'm into my fourth week of Humira. For the first few days after the injection I have been incredibly tired and just want to sleep, but it's working for me. | Humira has significantly reduced my pain and inflammation. I've had r/a for 22 years. I've had surgery on my feet, wrist, had and chest (CABG) and before starting Humira a month ago my neck was so sore I couldn't pick it up off the pillow sometimes. I have experienced improved mobility, reduced pain and a better quality of life. | M | 59 | 28 days | 11/9/2007 | 4 | Crohn's | Fatigue, muscle and joint pain, Edema, mental fatigue, Shortness of breath. | If it keeps me from having more surgery it will be fantastic. | M | 59 | 4 days | 2/27/2008 | 4 | RA | During the first few months I had severe fatigue, mosquito like breaking out on lower body, dry/scaley skin but all of these side effects have slowly subsided and have not any other side effects due to use. I havent had any RA flares other than sensitive joints occasionally but nothing radical since started taking Humira. I needed hip joint replacement before I started taking it and still need replacement. It will not fix something a bad as my hips but does keep the joints from flaring which is a tremendous help. | M | 59 | 12 months 40 2X M | 6/4/2011 | 3 | RA | Besides the side effects I have commented on prior to this, I have been experiencing other side effects within the last month, whether be it Humira that caused it, is yet to be concretely determined, but the symptoms worsen right after the drug is administered. I have been experiencing severe itching on a certain area of my back within the last couple of months and within the last month I have been having what looks like sever insect bites, some of which become really inflamed. New ones show up nearly everyday. I would say that I have no less than 15-20 of these everyday with new ones every morning. I had first thought I might have got insect bites being in weeds but I have notice that I dont have to be in weeds and bound to the house and still have them. They become worse right after taking the injections so I am going to treat it as a side effect of the meds. Right after I started taking the med, I had what seemed to be misquito bites on the lower extremeties, legs, thighs and | M | 59 | 12 months 2X M | 7/7/2011 | 3 | Crohn's/colitis | Hair loss! Fatigue, painful injections (I guess everyone has that). Some itching. I didn't have this with Remicade, & I took that for over 2 years. | I didn't even take my last injection this past weekend because I'm sick of my already-thin hair falling out even more. | F | 59 | 4 months ? 2X M | 7/13/2011 | 3 | RA | So far some fatigue and sluggish feeling | Hands and feet don't hurt as bad and don't feel as stiff. Don't know if this is a normal cycle or if the Humira has taken effect. Last night was a bad night, | M | 59 | 3 days 40mg 2X M | 7/9/2010 | 3 | RA | I have been taking the drug for 6 months. I have had RA for 4 years and tried Enbrel previously. I am unsure if the drug is helping me yet, but in the past 2 weeks I have developed severe muscle pain and weakness in both legs and arms. My legs feel like I have run 8 miles, but I am hardly able to walk for exercise now, much less able to run any more. I want to find out how common these side effects are is and if they subside over time. | F | 59 | 6 months | 3/21/2009 | 2 | Crohn's disease | Did well on Humira after first 2 shots ,2nd 2 shots, third 2 shots after 15 dqays. Day29 next time the sixth shot made me extremely ill. Severe pain all over body,bronchtis, extreme fatigue, high fever for five days.Took antibiotics for 2 weeks- and was told to skip a shot.Finished antibiotics 4 days ago and all my symptoms are back. Don't know waht to do? My doctor told me to keep taking it even after infection came back. Am frightened about doing this. Any suggestions? I really need help with this--my doctor is an idiot and am frightened. | Have been taking Humira since December 4th. | F | 59 | 6 weeks | 2/1/2009 | 1 | Humira | I started taking Humira 40mg in April 2007 approximately 4 weeks after the first shot I started having severe vertigo and dizziness along with tinnitus. My balance has presented an issue since. I have visited and asked several doctors including my primary care physicians, my rheumatologists, 2 otolaryngologists, 2 neurologists, a neuro otolaryngologist I have also had a million dollar work up so they say. They can't find anything wrong and I have asked each an every one of these doctors if Humira would cause thi and each one has informed me that it would not. After taking injections for 17 months I decided to stop taking the injections in October of 2008. Since stopping the injections the symptoms have gradually subsided. I am not completely free of the symptoms and have reached a plateau. My questions are was it the Humira causing this and will these symptoms ever go away and could you recommend a Doctor that specializes in medication reactions. | M | 59 | 17 months | 10/8/2009 | 5 | Psoriasis | up to now, no side effects and it seems to be working well | I have to take the anti TB tablets for 3 months due to having latent TB, but I am having no problems at the moment, my skin was in a terrible state, I was covered and very very sore, so it is great to be clear | F | 58 | 6 weeks | 5/15/2009 | 4 | Severe plaque Psorisis | Stinging at injection site, leaving the pen out for twenty minutes helped | I have had severe and embarrasing psorisis for 27 years, creams & lotions didn't help. Sandimun Neurol cleared it up, but left me with high blood pressure and built up in my kidneys to toxic levels, my specialist took me off it immediately. I have several types of mental illness, so any fogginess or confusion may be attributed to that or the meds I take for it. Humira hasn't done anything for my osteoarthritis, but the psorisis began to clear up immediately. I now only have a few spots and some dark marks where the worst had been. I hate injecting myself, but it is better than the alternative of living in embarrasment and wanting to scratch my skin off in bed at night. | F | 58 | 21 weeks | 3/31/2008 | 4 | RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS | HAVE RESPONDED WELL JOINT WISE. HAVE DEVELOPED RO ANTIBODIES WITH A PREVIOUSLY NEGATIVE LUPUS PANEL. EITHER I HAVE SJOGRENS OR HUMIRA CAUSED THE ANTIBODIES TO BE PRODUCED. ATTEMPTING TO GO OFF HUMIRA TO SEE IF SJOGRENS TYPE SYMPTOMS ABATE. I HAVE MISSED 2 DOSES. NO FLARE AS YET AND BURNING AND DRYNESS SEEMS SOME BETTER. | F | 58 | 9 months | 11/20/2007 | 4 | Psoriatic arthritis/Psoriasis | No injection site problems. After about a year I developed itching problems on my back and left hand. I also have minor swelling in that hand. No infections, no mental problems. | Excellent control of psoriasis lesions, almost 100%. After 6 mos very good control of PA symptoms. My Dr increased period between injections from 2 to 3 wks...bad move. PA symptoms began to come back. Went on 3 wk regimen for 3 mos and now back to 2 wks. Control of PA not as effective now, perhaps 60%. I would be afraid to stop injections because it has helped contol joint damage. I may ad MTX to treatment. Would consider trying Remicade or Enbrel. Happy to correspond. I'm in Colorado. | M | 58 | 1.5 years | 11/3/2007 | 4 | ra | i have developed burning mouth syndrome. not sure if r/t humira. have not heard of others having this problem. | energy level good. do not sleep well. | F | 58 | 5 months | 9/1/2007 | 4 | Crohn's Disease | I guess I've been lucky. No side effects so far. I seem to get fatigued a couple days before the next injection. Haven't taken it long enough to be sure about some things. The last time I gave myself an injection, the day after (a Sunday) I felt "off" a little (a little tired, maybe a little rundown, not my usual self). | Am also taking Mercaptopurine (2x50mg tablets a day). Started taking Humira a couple months after a relapse. Abdominal soreness when exercising not there anymore. Tried the injections in my legs and my abdomen. Hurts more in my legs. Am rotating sites in my abdomen. I take the Pen Injector out of the refrigerator for an hour or so before using it. The last part of the injection stings the most. Some soreness for a short while afterwards. Bruising only one time. | M | 58 | 2 months 40 2X M | 2/2/2012 | 3 | psoriatic arthritis | I am nauseaus about 12 hours after the injection. Also experience sinus pain and dizziness. The injection hurts right after taking but dissipates quickly. | I developed a bad, itchy rash 3 days after taking my last injection. I don't know if this is related. Has anyone else experienced this? I've also been having periodic stomache aches and don't know if this is related. I was on Remicade for 2 years and was pain free, but had a very serious allergic reaction so had to stop taking it. Humira is not nearly as effective as Remicade was, but I still feel better than I would if I was not taking it. | F | 58 | 10 months 40mg 2X M | 6/27/2010 | 3 | RA | here lately i have had a weird patch on my back where it looks like i have been leaning back on a peg board with all the impressions of the little holes. it it not a breaking out and not raised but seems to be under the skin. anyone else had that? | feels like i dont have the hurting in my joints as i used to but still really fatigued for a few days after i take the injection and i have headaches at least 3 times a week and i have never had headaches in my life. | M | 58 | 8 weeks 30 2X M | 9/14/2010 | 2 | i previously posted to this site but found other problems that i omitted. i have dehydration cause i drink liquids constantly which i had never done before. nervous bouts and anxious feeling. sometimes confused about the simplest things. irritable. | M | 58 | 4 weeks 40mg 2X M | 8/8/2010 | 2 | Crohns | Injection site bruising which then turns into scabs after 2 weeks. Lumps at injection sites have not gone away. I have been on Humira for 6 weeks now. Also have severe exhaustion for several days after injection. Crohns flare has become more severe rather than getting better. Wondering if I should be on Remicade instead. | I was on Humira over a year ago and did have success. I went into remission for about 6 months, then developed an abdominal abcess; it went downhill from there. | F | 58 | 6 weeks | 3/6/2009 | 1 | RA | I have had an am having almost every side effect listed. Fatigue, hives, flu-like symptoms, headache, migraine aura with vision, swelling of hands and feet, extreme muscle pain, muscle cramps, RA about 10 times worse, scaly skin and scalp. Also the spot on my back that itches that others have described. I have been living in intense pain for close to 4 months, wondering if I will ever be myself again. | Horrid, horrid, horrid drug. Needs more testing. | F | 58 | 1 times 1X O | 1/25/2012 | 5 | Psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis | M | 57 | 40 mg 1X D | 12/19/2011 History | 5 | RA | Slight headache for short time 4 hours after dose, but could be unrelated. "miracle" drug is my case. Could not hardly walk before treatment. Back to normal life style with Humria | Thankful for med. just sorry to hear of the other folks problems. Hope my luck keeps up with treatment program. Before ready to give up living. Could not afford with assistance from Humria | M | 57 | 1.5 years 20 2X M | 7/27/2011 | 3 | RA | I started taking Enbrel in Oct of 2003 when diagnosed with RA. Enbrel was a wonder drug for me. I took it until Oct 2008 and my Dr said to change to Humira because Enbrel will loose it's effect after 5 years. | After I switched to Humira I have experienced blurred vision, and unsteadiness in my hands. I had bloating with Enbrel and not on Humira. I did notice weight loss of 10 pounds since I started on Humira. Also I'm having a lot of hip pains that I didn't have before. In Oct of 08 I started getting skin cancer (Squamous cell carcinoma)but I guess that started with Enbrel. My next appointment with my Rheumatologist I'm going to ask to be put back on Enbrel. There are much less side effects for me with Enbrel. The blurred vision is a big concern. | M | 57 | 5 years | 4/6/2009 | 2 | pustular psorasis | excema constant all over body itching. Vaginal and rectal soreness. Not able to deal with day to day stresses. Off work for extended periods of time. original spots are multiple sizes bigger. | can't seem to get any answers from the Drs. | F | 57 | 11 months 1X W | 9/11/2012 | 1 | CD | Severe dry skin, hair thinning, tingling and numbness of hands and feet, severe headaches, muslce spasms, memory loss/brain fog. | Very scared right I will not be able to work any more. | F | 57 | 18 months 40MG 2X M | 5/3/2013 | 1 | RA | nausea, headaches, fatigue | All drugs are poisoness, RA it turns out is easily cured with apple cidar vinegar which you won't hear from a doctor, the cover up is massive since the 1950's and the drug companies own the news with their advertising budgets and the politicians with their contributions, the internet has saved me.
