n00b, Hi! I have been on Humira for two years now. I had the same choice as you and decided to try Humira because I didn't want to go to the doctors every few months for an extended amount of time. The first year of Humira was amazing. I think I might have had one-three stomach aches that...

Chase's Mommy Thank you this helps a lot. When i was in the hospital whenever they gave me the meds through the IV i always had them go very slow. I am still a bit nervous because of the fact i will be putting things directly into my body which has always freaked me out. Knowing that there is...
