Discontinued usage. Currently on Entocourot (which I have taken before). Diagnosed in 2006 w CD. No meds have helped yet going to dietian to see if a strict food plan with vita supplements will work. Going to my job everyday for 10 hrs a day has been a struggle with and now after Humera. | F | 29 | 10 months | 8/20/2012 | 2 | Ulcerative Colitis. | Increased fatigue and aching all over. No real changes in my UC. | M | 32 | 4 months 1 shot. 2X M | 8/11/2012 | 1 | Psoriatic Auth | . Fever, Chills, EXTREM headache that affected my eyes and hearing, server body ache, vomiting and diarrhea, abdomen pain, sinus infection, unable to focus, chest pains to the right side, ok what’s left?? | I was doing fine with the medication until after the 3 does; I became so sick that I thought I was going to end up in the hospital. My Rh Doctors was unavailable to see me so I went to my primary doctor; he gave me 3 different medications to offset the side effects to this drug. Now I am just waiting for the crap to get out of my system. I would not recommend this drug. I will just keep the psoriases before I will go through this again. | F | 43 | 2 months 40MG 2X M | 8/10/2012 | 3 | psoriasis | site area little sore when fist to no big deal ...I do all though see something different like rash ,it started 2 in half years ago i had blisters on feet and hands started with creams doctors gave me then methotrexate and know humira never have i ever had any thing like this before so it kinda freaked me out i also used soriatane ... | It has only been 3 shots total so little puckish sometimes ????? more to be reviled ....Never have i had psoriasis until 2 and half years ago today date is 8/7/2012 | F | 44 | 2 weeks 40 mg 1X O | 8/7/2012 | 3 | Crohn's Disease | Very sleepy first two days after injection, some nausea. Scalp Psorisis. Red bump rash that is thought to be from Humira. (No doc is sure x4, they just keep putting me on antibiotics when it opens up) Injection site pain, itching after injections. Headaches. Repeated infections | Humira has given me some of my life back with severe crohn's. I can plan about 3 good days a week with it, rather than none without. I am intolerant or other ibd meds have shown no improvement ( I have taken them ALL aside from Cimzia and Tysarbi) Is it perfect? NOT AT ALL but so far the best option for me. | F | 38 | 2 years 40 Mg 1X W | 8/6/2012 | 4 | RA | Injection site pain. But other then that the drug has really been a blessing. I do worry about long term side effects, or if I can no longer afford it. | Its allowed me to lead a normal life, once again. | F | 48 | 6 years 40 MG 2X M | 7/28/2012 | 4 | Crohn's disease | Complete baldness. I lost all my hair within 6 months time. Using Humira now for three years and my hair did not yet return. Other side effects are, dry skin and always a runny nose. | For the Crohn's disease it works perfect for me, did not have an inflammation since using Humira. But the side effects of the complete baldness does put pressure on my quality of life. | F | 37 | 3 years 2X M | 7/27/2012 | 3 | RA | headache for two days after injection. odd skin lumps that my dr. says are not nodules. lump on eyelid, inside ear and on back. knees hurt which they never have before. | took 3 months to notice any relief from, but still minimal. | F | 44 | 5 months 40mg 2X M | 7/23/2012 | 5 | Crohns | Slight hair loss - I've grown my hair longer in case I need a combover down the track! Fatigue for two days after the shot - so I take it on a Friday night and have a quiet weekend. | It has taken quite some time to work - but it has put me in remission with very limited side effects. I was very worried about taking it - but I am delighted with the results so far. | F | 43 | 3 months 2X M | 7/7/2012 | 5 | ps | Very very bad headaches two days after shot. | 34 | 4 months 1 shot wkl | 6/16/2012 | 3 | Arthritis | About 8 hrs after injecting, I feel 10 years younger. That's not a cliché, it's as close to describing how I actually feel as I can. However, the next day I feel the same. Doctor says I have to be on the drug for awhile before effects can be certain. But at more than $1,000 an injection, I don't know if that will happen. Is it worth the price. So far, I'd say no. | M | 48 | 1 months | 6/13/2012 | 5 | RA | No noticeable side effects. | Before taking Humira I had extreme difficulty using my hands. Within a few weeks I had practically full mobility back in my hands and feet. I don't need any pain killers or anti-flammatories. I appreciate some people may not have had such a positive experience, but I certainly wouldn't like to have to go back. | M | 47 | 2 years 30MG 2X M | 6/12/2012 | 3 | Crohn's Disease | Humira has worked wonders for my Crohn's sypmptoms after trying nearly every Crohn's drug on the market. Side effects include: severe joint pain, tingling in fingers and toes, severe weight gain without a change in eating habits, headaches, swelling in injection site, night sweats, rashs, hair loss, ezcema, nausea, severe shortness of breath and swelling in legs, feet, face and stomach have occurred recently | This medicine has worked great for the Crohn's but I just keep getting more and more side effects. Mine are getting so bad and severe it is dangerous, looking to find a new drug and see my GI doc asap. | F | 22 | 3 years 40 MG 2X M | 6/12/2012 | 1 | crohn's | Worked decent for the first few months although it was compounded with 60mg prednisone. Settled my crohns a bit but with each taper of pred I had terrible pain. I am now having an alergic reaction of some sort with an itchy scaly rash all over my legs arms belly and back. It is just unbearable, I cannot continue with this drug. | M | 29 | 8 months 40mx 1x wk | 6/11/2012 | 2 | Chrons | Extremely tired on Humira. I now have pain in my knees and other joints. Hands feel swollen also. | Over all I felt much better before taking Humira and could deal with the diarrhea as I have had crohns for so long. Being tired all the time has actually reduced my quality of life. If things do not change I will tell my GI I am stopping the treatment. I will wait a full 6 months to see if there are any changes. | M | 52 | 90 days 2X M | 6/5/2012 | 5 | crohns | None | Getting use to self injecting was difficult - I hate needles. Anyway, the drug has given me my life back and I have been able to work a full time job. Minor dull headache, but if you inject before bedtime, its not even noticed. | F | 45 | 14 months 40 2X M | 5/27/2012 |
