Anxiety meds with humira?

[Themonsterface]

Anyone else take anxiety meds with humira? Ive been experiencing higher levels of anxiety when taking my shot. I went into anaphylaxis when on remicade and almost died (the nurse didn't have an epi pen in the room like she was supposed to). Since switching to humira I sometimes skip some doses as my insurance doesn't pay for it and I'm running low as I'm habingg trouble getting in for free like i normally do. Lately when I take it I feel off. Fluttering heart, shortness of breath, wheezing and anxiety, sometimes muscle pain. I'm not sure of I'm having a reaction or if it's psychosomatic. In general I've been dealing with anxiety, but don't take anything for it. I wouldn't mind having a prescription to handle they anxiety I have when taking the shot.

Anyone else do this? How do I bring it up with my dr? They won't prescribe me pain meds to have on hand either. I feel like I'm drug seeking when I ask, but I just want them As a just in case,
Rather then going to the emergency room for them!

I experience the same panic attacks when I take my meds. I take klonopin to help ease it and sometimes a benadryl if I'm really worried that I'm having a reaction. Don't be embarrassed to ask the doctor for some anxiety Neds to help you out as needed.

I guess I know that, yet i still haven't been able to ask..I'll
Mention that I've been feeling extremely anxious lately at my visits. I'll say I've had shortness of breath/can't sleep/feel very off from how I usually feel. I'll mention it's the west wheni have to take meds or an feeling sick..I thought that was wnough-but I jus get brushed off-I guess I just have to ask.. I even told my Gi all this and mentioned I'd had trouble selling but didn't want sleeping pills. The said I'd had Ativan before at he hospital and wish I had some in case I ever needed at home for a flare. He oeegrobed me ambien!! Wtf!? No!
