Newly diagnosed and new to humira

[labellavita12]

I just got releasrd from a week long hospital stay, while in the hospital they started me on humira. I am curious how others who have taken humira felt it worked for them. Also what side effects have you had. Its been two days since my injections and i woke up feeling like i got hit by a bus. I dont know if it is from the medicine or just from sleeping on an uncomfortable hospital bed for an extended amount of time. Although it hurts when i put pressure where my lymphnodes are on my neck so i dont think thats from sleeping wrong. Can anyone who has taken humira tell me about there experience? I could really use your help! :sign0085:

Also if anyone has other recommendations for medications, please feel free to share.

I've been on weekly Humira injections for a few years. Besides a rash at the injection site that lasts about a day, I have never really had any other side effects from it. It really helps to keep my flare ups at a minimum. If you suspect your side effects are caused by Humira, you should contact your GI Doctor right away. Good luck to you!
