Skyrizi & Blood

[Cross-stitch gal]

Hi. For those of you who are taking Skyrizi. Have any of you had blood within your first week of your second infusion? For me it's a little strange, because I had none during my first dose, however I started seeing a little shortly after my second this last Thursday. Then, today on Tuesday I've got full on blood with my bowel movement. I've got to admit though that it's been pretty stressful in my life lately which could be part of the problem...

I didn’t, although blood is very rare for me in any case. Take good care!

Since your on a loading dose (2 of 3 )I would expect similar to other biologics a bit of a bumpy ride until it’s completed

That’s good to know!!! Thank you for the info! I did notice that the blood went for a few days and then was gone. One thing I'm thankful for though is that even though I had blood, there was no pain!!!! That's definitely a change for me!

We found out that a big part of the problem is that I can't tolerate: Red #40 color in my drinks. We happened to be drinking fruit punch crystal light regularly and this was in the mix. Once we stopped drinking it I got better! There have been a time or two that I have had accidents, but that's it!! I do still have the smelly gas at times though. But, for the most part am much better!! Just got to keep in mind now to stay away from drinks with Red #40...
