My husband and I live on a private high school campus and have been told we are moving into a dorm. We will live with 40 students. Now that Iam on humira on I am fearful of germs and the diseases common in dorms--especially with a large international population. Does anyone have any experience with being on humira and living in a dorm--either as a student among students or faculty among students?

Hi Sam 
We don't have experience with Humira, but with Cimzia. However, my daughter has been on it throughout her entire freshman year of college and living in a
Dorm; everything was fine.
At one point there was even an outbreak of TB at her university and I was very worried about her ; but nothing became of it. She has barely even caught so much as a common cold
That her peers had while living there.
I know it is concerning being on such immunosuppressants, but try not to worry yourself too much
Best of luck !
