    The FLU and Humira

    Let me tell you what not to catch while on Humira and some prednisone... THE FLU. I even had the shot, and of course it wasn't effective for me. I'm on day 3 of absolute hell. I haven't been this sick since I was a kid. I am practically bed ridden. Guess I'm just happy to not be in the...

    Tramadol?

    As you know they don't want us to take Advil etc... and regular Tylenol does nothing... I get migraines and I have terrible plantar faciitus not to mention the gut pains we get. Regular nacrotics make me sicker than a dog, like head ache puking sick so this is the first pain killer I have taken...

    Tramadol?

    How serious of a pain killer is this? I know this is going to sound funny but I was watching Supernatural and the main character made a joke about 'comfortably numb" in reference to Tramadol... Am I missing out on something here? Haha I take it probably once a day every other day or so and I...

    How long until it kicks in?

    Hey guys, I finally got on humira and I had my first round about a week and a half ago. I did the 4 injections... OUCH I'm still on 10mg pred so I'm not sure if the Humira is working yet. Any experience with that?

    Sulfasalazine?

    Everything was fine until I upped the dosage. I just get shakey feeling. Like having too much caffiene. I'll try eating it with food.

    Sulfasalazine?

    I started taking this last Sunday with just one tab in the AM. Last night I started the 2nd tab in the evening. I feel horrible today after taking my morning dose. I feel like I'm low on sugar or something, just kinda nauseous and shakey. Is this normal?

    Blue Cross is trying to screw me.

    They did not used to be this bad. I hate to say it... Could it be that Obama care thing? I don't know because I haven't been following it. But something seems to have changed. And heavens yes. We pay a TON for insurance.

    Blue Cross is trying to screw me.

    Thanks everyone. I'm certainly going to go up the appeal chain as far as I can go. I can't believe this.

    Blue Cross is trying to screw me.

    A few months ago I got a letter stating that Blue Cross was denying my claim for "Lab Service" and that my doctor was appealing the decision for me. I even called them and tried to get more info and they told me not to worry that my doctor was handling it etc I would get a letter. Well I got...
