Maybe an obstruction??

[LadyVik]

Background,
Been on Humira for 3 months, feels like since last week it's stopped working, also had a sore throat for a few months and a swollen inside of both nostrils.

Well, I've had D now for a week, literally 30 times a day, but I'm wondering whether it sounds like an obstruction, as I'm going little and often, some bright red blood (which is not normal for me unless I'm flaring very badly) and lots of mucus. But I'm not being sick at all, though I am feeling it. I'm also very tired and it seems when my body is flaring with Crohn's, my eczema plays up, which it is, so I don't know if it is just a flare up. I will be ringing my Consultant tomorrow as I'm supposed to take my weekly shot of Humira tomorrow, and I don't know if this sounds like an infection, but was just wondering whether this sounds like something anyone else has had? I've asked my Mum (she also has Crohn's) but she said she's never experienced something like this before.
Please help!
Vicky.

Hi LadyVik! I am in the same situation at this time although not quite as much D. I too have some blood, lots of mucus, and very fatigued. In addition I am having severe pain in area around illuem (LRQ). Sounds like to me, you may have to try changing meds - maybe remiciade or cimzia. I sure hope you feel better and they find out what is going on! Good Luck!

I suspect the 30 trips a day and the blood are possibly connected. Whenever I start going that much, I almost always end up with a fissure that bleeds bright red blood like that.
