By chance did either of you have issues just right after the dose or did they come and go. My son has had them within 24 hours of the dose (headache, belly pain, and severe fatigue) - It usually passes in about 24 hours. But this past time at day 10 (4 days before next dose) he had the same...

My son recently started Humira and had his first 2 loading doses. 3 days after the first (4 shots) he had fatigue, headache, stomach pain and loss of appetite that was intense and lasted for about 12 hours. After the 2nd dose (2 shots), within one day, he had the same but not as severe. His...

Thank you! I have been searching for support for months now and am so glad that I have found you all. I am felt so alone in this...and so has my son. Thank you!

Thank you. As quick as these things to come on they sometimes go just as quick. After a great night sleep, he feels "himself" again. We also have to deal with food allergies and ADHD. Those seem easier to manage now that we have Crohn's thrown in the mix.

Thank you for sharing that. yes it was 4 shots at the loading dose. My concern was that these symptoms didn't start right away. The doctor though mentioned that sometimes the body takes a couple days to try to figure out what to do with the medication and then starts working and that may be...

He did have his loading dose on Tuesday - 4 shots of 20mg each. They said there was a chance of headache and nausea, but didn't say it would take 3 days to really kick in. My hope is that a goods night sleep will help. Of course these things always happen on a weekend or night when I can't...

Just diagnosed the end of August.... Just starting into the "maintenance meds" journey. I have so many questions and the things I've read online are frightening. I thought we were out of the woods with the Humira after the first 2 days with no side effects, but now trying to figure out if it...

I am brand new to this site and really Crohn's. My 10 yr old son was just dx in the end of August. He had severe iron difficiency, weight loss, and stopped growing. We were actually surprised to get the dx of Crohn's. He started out on Prednisone, then they tapered him off that and onto...

My 10 yr old son just had his first dose of Humira on Tuesday morning. Yesterday he seemed tired, by tonight at dinner he had a headache and some belly cramps. Is it possible that it can be from the Humira 3 days after the first dose? If so, how long does this last and has it eased for...
