I have been on Humira for about 8 months after having a reaction to remicade. Within the first few weeks, my liver enzymes started rising and are now to the point the doctor has told me to stop the Humira. He seems reluctant to believe the Humira is the source of my elevated liver enzymes, but is coming to that conclusion after the battery of blood tests has shown I don't have hepatitis, I don't drink, use IV drugs, etc. However since stopping, I have had very intense pains that are randomly roving around my body. The doc wants to blame it on arthritis associated with Crohns, but I'm not so sure. The pains are frequently in my joints, however they are also just as frequently in places I wouldn't associate with arthritis. For example, the tendons on the backside of my knee, or just below my shoulder blade, just below my thumb nail, on the side of my knee, just above the ankle, etc. The other odd thing is the pain will be intense for 12 to 24 hours in on location during which the tendons in that area will pop and snap and feel stiff. Within 24 hours however that area will feel fine and then the pain shows up in a different location for another 24 hours and then the process repeats in yet a different location. I should also note that none of these issues were present pre-Humira
Has anyone else ever had these types of issues after stopping Humira or heard of anyone having these types of problems?
