Just saw my Crohn's doctor last week and she wants me to start taking lialda. She said it is to prevent colon cancer. Has anyone else been put on this? I already take Humira, I have had to go on blood pressure medication, I really prefer to not add any more drugs to my system. Just curious if...

Michaelagraham, the first four shots killed me, I made my daughter go and learn because I am a needle freak, I almost knocked the first one in my leg out of her hand. I had lost almost 30 lbs at that time (may). I have now gained my weight back and the shots while still not enjoyable, are not...

Sorry to post twice so quickly, but one more question. Has anyone had high blood pressure since going on Humira? My blood pressure has always been low, but it has been off the charts high. Had a depo shot appointment and they almost didnt give it to me due to my blood pressure being so high...

I was diagnosed with severe Crohn's/Colitis in May of 13 after almost a year of misery and pain. My doctor left me no options other than Humira. I started with four shots, two in my stomach and one in each leg. (The leg shots killed me, never again). I began to get relief two days after the...
