4 | RA | I have to take my shot on the weekend because of the immediate side effects. Within 1 hour of taking it, I am feverish, fatigue, shortness of breath, longer than normal digestion, and body aches. For me, this last a minimum of 24 hours, sometimes 36. | After the unfortunate loss of every weekend (which is quite depressing and an emotional roller coaster of feelings), I experience an engery boost like never before. I am almost jittery like, pacing at work, and I still have energy after work to help with dinner and chores that I have not been able to do for years. Overall, I do have improvements in joint pain, but not 100% gone. The anxiety/ depression of not being a productive mother and wife on the weekends (because of the shot) does negatively affect me. It’s definitely a different life and takes time to get used to. | F | 40 | 5 months 40mg 1X W | 7/12/2020 | 4 | Rheumatoid arthritis | Fatigue | F | 53 | 5 months 2x month | 6/25/2020 | 1 | Ankylosin spondylitis,hydrentinits, | I stoped enberel and started using humira 6 months ago because it was advertised to work with ulcerative colitis, and hydrentinits superlative along with ,ankylosing spondylitis, 3 weeks ago my spleen got enlarged so i went to the hospital and now i have myelofibrosis with the calr gene mutation , i strongly believe the humira is responsible for my bone marrow cancer read the black box warning if you intend on taking this injection , in my case the side effects were way worse then the relief it gave me and now I'm fighting bone marrow cancer. | M | 50 | 7 days 30mg | 6/23/2020 | 1 | Ankylosin spondylitis,hydrentinits, | I stoped enbrel and started using humira 6 months ago because it was advertised to work with ulcerative colitis ,and hydrentinits superlative along with ,ankylosing spondylitis, 3 weeks ago my spleen got enlarged so i went to the hospital and now i have myelofibrosis with the calr gene mutation , i strongly believe the humira is responsible for my bone marrow cancer read the black box warning if you intend on taking this injection , in my case the side effects were way worse then the relief it gave me and now I'm fighting bone marrow cancer. | M | 50 | 6 months 30mg | 6/23/2020 | 1 | RA | my joint pain went from 4-5/10 to 9/10 within the first 4 injections/2 months. Instead of a gradual decrease in pain it was a dramatic increase over far too short of a period. | given how this Rx works on suppression of TNF, I think the overall risks especially how it impacts the immune system is far too risky. I have been an RN clinician for 35 uears | M | 67 | 3 months 40 | 6/12/2020 | 4 | UC | Headache,nauseous, headache, vomiting | F | 65 | 0 days Twice a mo | 3/18/2020 | 3 | Early onset psoriatic arthritis & p | Mood swings. Anxiety. Anger. Obsessive thinking. | Been on Hunira, Enbrel & Remicade depending on best deal providers could offer and the emotional side effects are very bad. I have alienated many people since being on it and i am fearful i will be alone the rest of my life due to how it makes me so messed up. I never stacked ot with SSRI's as i know what those do. All biologics helped with the physical conditions though and having the psoriasis go away and the arthritis clear up made me stay on it, as th3 methotrexate i took prior, felt unbearable. I am seeking medical and psychological help to determine the next move. As i am so old now, i almost don't mind the thought of letting my bones deteriorate if i stop and the psoriasis being all ove my body again. The remicade made me have suicidal ideation and enbrel and humira may as well. I surround myself with a spiritual practice and a few people understand. Olease alter the rating system? It is not relevant to the side effects which are atrocious, despite the medicine being effective. If it makes ya want to die, is that "effective"? | M | 56 | 17 years 40mg? Week | 2/26/2020 | 5 | Severe RA | Headaches, injection site soreness for days, big bruising on injection site, stomach pain, sick for 5 days, | I stopped taking this med after I was hospitalized for 2weeks due to a pulmonary pleural effusion. Had to get surgery. Had 3 chest tubes place. Almost lost my lung. So no longer taking Humira since that hospitalization. I am still taking Methotrexate. | M | 50 | 1 years 40mg 1X O | 2/16/2020 | 1 | Ulcerative colitis | Absolutely awful drug the side mental effects started after taking for 4 months and slowly continued to worsen to the point that I was nothing short of crazy Dangerous depression , suicidal ideation , horrible anxiety , daily panic attacks , memory problems. This drug should be banned until ignorant healthcare workers listen to their patients. This drug has possibly been the death of people through suicide. | DON'T ignore the early signs of depression it could cost you your life. | M | 39 | 2 days | 1/28/2020 | 1 | Rheumatoid arthritis and Crohn's | My son just started this Im really scared for him to get cancer or any other life side effects. like to have some advice on taking this medicine for my son | He was on Enbrel medicine for a year and got Crohn's disease from it | M | 8 | 30 days | 1/23/2020 | 4 | Crohns | Nausea, tiredness the first day after injection. I take injection at night. Injection site will itch for a couple hours. | It seems to be helping. I have had more energy and feel like my old self. Only first day after injection I feel tired. Nausea has been a lot the first day after injection and on and off threw out the month. I don't know if that is Humira related or Crohn's related. Over all I am a lot better. | F | 55 | 2 months 40 mg 2X M | 1/10/2020 | 2 | Crohn's | Restless legs at night, fatigue | Been on it for 4+ months. Not working 100% yet. Symptoms better than flare up but not perfect. Tired constantly. | M | 42 | 4 months 80/40mg | 12/29/2019 | 3 | HS | Has not helped HS yet. Causes my to be tired 24 hrs aft inj. Also caused leg edema. | F | 35 | 10 weeks 4 xm | 12/19/2019 | 1 | U/C and A/S | This drug induced what I would class as a severe from of bipolar disorder severe depression anxiety emotional instability panic attacks anger rage sadness memory issues ect a complete personality change. These symptoms creeped in slowly but worsened to the point that I was really struggling mentally in every aspect of life. It was almost like an out of body experience the way that drug effects your brain is dangerous It's like being in the driver's seat of a car that's completely out of control but your paralyzed unable to take the wheel and control of the situation. | With hundreds of similar complaints from people all over internet it's about time doctors warned people of the physiological dangers of taking this drug prior to prescribing it or it could cost the patient their life. Since stopping this drug I have had zero psychological problems but I have been left with drug induced psoriasis all over my face and scalp. | M | 42 | 1 years 40 | 12/4/2019 | 1 | Crohns | Anxiety, panic Attacks, mood swings, suicidal thoughts, increased bowel movements, shortness of breath, rashes, hair loss | Been off this horrible drug for about 4 months now and I'm still dealing with anxiety, panic attacks and shortness of breath. I went from 1 bathroom break to 20 and even sh* myself while walking on the street. I regret the day I decided to start on these drugs. I'm from Norway and here you get the meds for free. Can't even imagine how it would feel like to be broke as well because of this horrible drug. | M | 34 | 3 months 40mg | 11/23/2019 | 1 | Psoriasis psoriatic athritis | Horrible side effects muscles ache head cold fever ended up in the hospital because the side effects made me feel like I was dying | M | 34 | 40 days 40 mg | 11/18/2019 | 1 | Crohns | I started getting cold toes right after taking the first shot but the doctor had not warned me about any side affects, then after 6 months the cold toes turned into neuropathy, which is a side effect of Humira. I stopped taking Humira but now it’s to late, I will have neuropathy the rest of my life and I am not diabetic!!! | Stay away from this ridiculous priced drug. They should be ashamed charging that much money per shot!!! | M | 63 | 6 months 40mg | 11/6/2019 | 4 | Severe Crohns Disease | Mild redness and burning at the injection site. | Considering there is a black box warning on this drug, I was VERY reluctant to start my newly diagnosed teenager on this therapy. After she failed a trial of Imuran due to acute pancreatitis, I agreed to try Humira. I have to say she is doing and feeling extremely well, so far. Her daily stomach issues and generalized body pain have all but disappeared. I feel like I have my daughter back. She has noticed she starts to feel a bit crummy a few days before her injection is due. Her doctor added some labs to check her blood level of the drug before her next injection just to make sure it is at a therapeutic level. For now, this has made a huge difference in her quality of life which is the goal. | F | 16 | 6 weeks 40 mg 1X O | 11/2/2019 | 1 | Psoriatic Arthritis | I developed a rash almost immediately with the first injection. Then slowly the mood swings started, followed by anger and depression. I was so crazy I would cry on my bedroom floor and then rage the next minute. I had this anger I never felt before. | F | 36 | 3 months 40mg | 9/26/2019 | 1 | I'm not | None | Please take the commercial of the band not singing !! It drives me nuts ,I have to mute my TV every time it comes on . Its stupid ! Its time for a change . I hate it . please !! ....remove it from television !!!!! | M | 63 | 0 days 0 | 9/18/2019 |
