Getting better on a lower Cimzia dose.

I was on 400mg/mL every 2 weeks until about 2 weeks ago, but now I'm on 400mg/mL every 4 weeks. It's been almost a month since my last injections and I've been feeling a bit better. I was already convinced it wasn't actually helping me (became immune to Remicade and Humira, so why not this?!), but I didn't think it would be making me worse.

I haven't changed anything else. I'm on Aciphex (20mg once a day), and I've been smoking marijuana (consistent amount).

Does anyone have any thoughts on this? I see my doctor on Friday but I'm scheduled to do the injections on Tuesday. I might be able to get in touch with him before then and see what he thinks.

Since early May of this year. I started out with the 2 injections every 2 weeks for the startup doses. After the 3rd dose, which was when I was supposed to start doing 2 injections every 2 weeks, I got worse so my doctor said to keep doing 2 injections/2 weeks, and have been doing that since now.
